Orientalism

4/18/2019

 
Bathed in the golden evening sunlight sits a Japanese man, motionless. Like a portly middle-aged buddha. A picture of Oriental spirituality to my Western eyes, until his wife appears from behind a tree from where, with imposing lens, she had been photographing him against the glowing backdrop of York Minster, towering above the scene.

​The power of photographs is centrifugal, drawing our eyes into those of others, seeing as they have seen and will see.

Silence

4/12/2019

 
Ideally, a photographer offers a silence into which the viewer enters.

Unframed

Photography as a means of presenting the viewer with the opportunity of unframing the images presented. 
The camera is a tool for unframing the world.
