Untitled Series - Part Two


Ironman

I enjoy capturing the moment when simple observations of my surroundings turn into something else. I like creating the transition from what is in front of me to what I hadn't known was there until I clicked the shutter.
     Ironman is a great example of the transformation of reality into perception. At Bishop's Landing along the Missouri River in St. Charles, MO sits a series of flood stage pipes that jut out of the water like large, imposing figures. When seen in silhouette, these massive steel structures become goliaths wading at the water's edge.
     Letting my imagination run wild is a gift I was given that allows me to find things that amuse and entertain me.
