I wasn't aware of Edward Hopper's work when I made this image. Rather, I was fresh out of J-School from Univ of Missouri and had returned to New Haven and New Britain to flex my miniature camera and newfound passion for people and situations muscles! No more Hasselblad and 4x5 for me! No sir.. Walking the mean streets of New Haven in early December, 1973. Seriously, Missouri and my classmates, one ball-busting professor and one more empathetic lit a fire in me that has seared my heart soul ever since. These folks and streets are where I came from. It wasn't difficult to approach, relate and become invisible. I'm rediscovering these old images and scanning them. Thanks to Photoshop and a few plug-ins I can salvage them while remaining true to original negatives...from Nikon FTNs and F-2s...and of course my beloved old Leica M-3s. Tri-X, D-76, HC-110 1:3, and Rodinal. Grainy, too. :) IMAGE: 18"W. x 12"H

First off I wouldn't have evolved this far as an artist without the deep friendship of two very special shooters...Chipp Jamison and Keith Williamson. And I wouldn't have understood anything about technique and 'seeing' without my longtime mentor and friend, Phil Zimmerman. It was suggested that I talk about what motivates me to That's always been difficult for me. I've always held to DH Lawrence's warning of 'Never Trust the Teller; Trust the Tale'. So here goes..When my camera and lens come up to my eye everything changes in me. My eye, brain, heart body and soul align. I become a part of. And it's a magical and glorious feeling...a physical rush as well as a spiritual one. My nose is crushed against my face; I realize I'm not breathing. All of me is concentrated on what I see through the viewfinder and flowing to that image. I see it; I feel it; my pulse is racing; I rapidly bracket (an old habit from my analog days) because I want the moment to last; and I know exactly what it's going to look like when I download it to Photoshop. I have this same experience whether the subject is rust on old cars, the Dunes, People, news events, my Mannequin, Landscapes, Water, or Flowers. And the best aspect of photography for me is that I get to experience all the joy of that one image over and over. There are a lot of images here and I keep posting more. I'm prolific. I'm a shooter and an artist. It's who I am. The images are as real and honest as I am. Enjoy!
