Do Your Thing

There are many photographers that aim for reality. To capture things how they are. I appreciate their talent. But I don't do that... Firstly I'm not talented enough. And secondly I aim for beauty. I edit. A lot. I just love LOVE love the fact that I can make an ordinary dull snapshot something totally different - This is my thing. My art.

  5. Mona....you say what I've come to realize about myself in the past year. There are some "natural" photos that I like, but I really LOVE creating "art" with textures, etc. Your tree images are just heavenly!

  7. You have gently and beautifully reminded me to look for all the barren, hibernating trees I can find today. There is such strength in looking at their structure...beautiful edits.

  10. Very pretty. I love the digital age where as you say photos can be transformed. I loved the early years of film, but so love my digital cameras much better. Love what you did with your photos. :)

  12. Love these images you are producing. I think it is time we stop apologizing for the editing we do to our images. Ever photo is edited whether by how you choose to frame it, the aperture and shutter speed you use to shoot it or what you do to it after, in a graphics program...as long as you are not presenting it as evidence in a legal trial, what does it mater how you achieved your result?
