I
view photography as a language; it is characterized by
the uncounted variations of light, form, color and
texture. Photography has its own vocabulary in an ever
changing, rich context. I use it for communication in
its most pure form, that is, to attempt to capture the
poetry of everyday objects fixed in time.

Driven by the prophetic statement of the Prophet
Muhammad – “The Earth is your Mother, so take care of
your Mother” I have endeavored in my photography to
portray a spiritual facet of Mother Earth that teaches
us how to live together in peace just as the diverse
natural world does every day. |

My photographs are noted by their rich colors and
textures, strong composition, and intriguing subject
matter. They most often include a structure with a story
to tell, such as a rustic wooden boat or an old doorway.
They evoke thoughts of days gone by, a simpler time, a
forgotten memory. |

Abstract nature photography has been my passion in the
last few years. Using a macro lens, I move in and
search among the stems and petals and leaves to see the
patterns of color, light and structure--and the little
surprises. Abstract sculptures and paintings appear.

I believe that our world is full or color and texture
that should be celebrated and that multiple layers exist
within each of us and within our world. As those layers
are revealed through photography, they awaken the
humanity within each of us. That an image can open us up
to a new layer of ourselves is magical. I feel a bit of
this magic as I capture each interaction in a frozen
moment.

These panoramic landscape images allow you to "step
inside" the captured, vibrant scenes and relive the
moment in time. I shoot very wide angle photographs to
closely approximate an expression of visual reality. In
turn, this creates a tension between the strange and the
familiar in our lives. |

I
see so much beauty in the world: heart-opening bits of
right-now that I try to capture with the camera so that
others can see it too, and share the deep, welling-up of
enchantment and peace found in those flickering moments. |
