I strive to capture what moves me on an emotional and aesthetical level. In pursuit of that, I visualize the image I want; and sometimes will happen upon the serendipity of something elusive-like a bird on the wing painted by a fading sun. My ultimate goal is to bring about a commitment to cherish the environment and a resolve to conserve our ever- diminishing natural habitats. The body of the current work has been photographed from the Carolinas through the Everglades and Florida Keys; and from the southwestern states of Arizona and Utah to the Yosemite Valley and the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. The work includes land- and sea-scapes; wildlife; waterfalls; Fall colors; desert and mountainous vistas; and slot canyons. The art pieces are produced in color and black and white in a variety of papers and canvas. They are available in framed prints, on gallery wraps, and matted prints. As for techniques: at times, I use the darkroom (in my case, the digital one) to enhance the work by adding filters and\/or painting with light. Panoramic and high dynamic range images are also available. A native of Ireland, I spent many years in Europe as a student and worker-primarily in France and Italy where I was surrounded by art in all forms from numerous centuries. In my work today, I draw from that influence and from my formal education in art appreciation and history; and photography.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Createspace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45432862605427,"sku":"9781493781126","price":24.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_f3ea0196-ecb3-4d7f-b805-38d9477de357.jpg?v=1788268069","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/the-fishing-piers-of-florida-9781493781126","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
