The Lens I Look Through: Photography holds a constant fascination for me because of the limitless possibilities for exploration that it provides. There are always other subjects, processes, techniques, equipment and technical aids with which to work. Nature is my favorite subject, along with architectural details, but I am equally at home with almost any subject, including animals and people. During my 35 years of freelancing, exhibiting and teaching, I have photographed a wide variety of subjects and objects, and I developed my vision and style in response to those experiences. Formal training has included receiving a Master's Degree in Visual Arts, and obtaining separate certificates in photojournalism and commercial photography, both of which included receiving awards for outstanding achievement. As an artist, I find beauty in everyday things that others pass by, but seldom notice. My knowledge of the elements of art - line, texture, color, etc. - and the principles of design - balance, harmony, etc. - enable me to select, isolate, and organize my subjects in the viewfinder. From my extensive training in photojournalism, I have learned to activate the shutter at the exact moment when the subject is at its best and when the mood that I want to convey can best be emphasized and projected. The commercial photography courses provided me with a thorough understanding of how to control contrast and lighting, and thereby enhance the mood. The common thread that runs through my work is the way that I use the elements of art and the principles of design to create images and to express what I feel is interesting about a particular subject. My vision is that of a photographer-artist. I believe that this common thread is what makes my work appealing to print collectors and what distinguishes me as a photographer. From my perspective, photography provides me with constant inspiration and an infinite set of ideas for effecting communication and thought. "Soon to be gone" by Marian L.
