Gathering the Light
Whether we are collecting photons (particles of light) on a digitial sensor or on film, the practice of photography (from the Greek, writing with light), at it's most basic, is deciding where, when, and how to literally gather light. How we frame our subjects, accounting for the variable illumination of the scene, and any subsequent adjustments we might make in post-processing, are all part of the creative process that has the potential to transform a casual photograph in to an intentional work of art. 

This is the reason I have chosen Gathering the Light  as the catchphrase for my photographic activities, both as an artist and collector.
