As someone who has felt disenfranchised for most of my life, I can relate to places and things that are, for the most part, bypassed or ignored. I have come to realize that no matter how something looks on the surface, there can be so much beauty that is hidden if someone is just willing to take the time and look a little bit harder.
I enjoy the peace, quiet, and solitude of the places I shoot. It gives me the opportunity to get a feeling for the surroundings. It helps me to convey the atmosphere. Some places have a sad warmth, some places are more cold and desolate. But each place, each thing, has a little story to tell.
