Ozymandias..Shelley's poem is narrated by the dead King Ozy, who demands that readers look upon his grand Empire and fall to their knees in awe and reverence at his Grand Legacy. Of course, his Empire is nothing but crumbling ruins trying to survive the onslaught of the relentless desert. Ooooops.. And when I returned to my hometown in 1973, the decay had already begun. And the run to China hadn't even really begun yet. Japan was beginning to clean our clock on cars and cheap toys...and tools and small appliances and tv's. Small and slow it began. But once started, it wouldn't be stopped. New Britain was a NE industrial powerhouse. It was the Hardware City of the World. Stanley Tools, Fafnir Bearings, Farberware and all the shadow plants that made parts for the big guys. And all the shadow plants that supplied the really Big guys..Sikorsky Aircraft, Hamilton Standard and of course, Pratt & Whitney Aircraft. The Blue Collar Lower Middle Class had it pretty well. In 1973 the end was just getting started. I have discovered a trove of images I made at this time. I confess, I was on passion auto-pilot at the time. It's a journey to see these images 50 years later. More to come... IMAGE: 20"W x 14"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!
