    Antique Ford Car, Fort Meyers, 2021

    "I photographed the Antique Ford Car at the Thomas Edison and Henry Ford Winter Estates in Fort Myers. The two inventors were friends and frequently summered together with their families. Can you imagine the dinner conversations? The estates feature an orange grove and lush gardens that partially reflect in the windshield. The iconic lines of the Ford Model T rendered in black and white allude to timelessness. I enjoy making images that are classically composed and could be confused with another era."

    “Sometimes, I’d take shots without aiming, just to see what happened. I’d rush into crowds. It must be close to what a fighter feels after jabbing and circling and getting hit when suddenly there’s an opening and Bang! Bang! Right on the button. It’s fantastic feeling”

    "Great images do not need a commentary or a context to elucidate them. As a matter of fact, it is the greatness of the images themselves that gives a meaning to the context."

    “In life’s saddest winter moments, when you’ve been under a cloud for weeks, suddenly a glimpse of something wonderful can change the whole complexion of things, your entire feeling.The kind of photography I like to do, capturing the moment, it is very much like that break in the clouds. In a flash, a wonderful picture seems to come out of nowhere”
