Most people can create a clear sharp photograph by studying the operation of the camera; understanding the aperture, shutter speed; and learning the rules of photography. I want to create art with the use of the digital camera along with software that can manipulate the images. I want to show the world photography as I see it, and not as the camera sees it. 

By taking a photograph and manipulating it, turning it into something that I see; Iā€™m creating a magical world of my own, that can be shared with anyone who is interested in seeing the world as I do or even create their own magical world. The manipulations that I create are not drastic, but subtle. On the other hand, changing the photography just enough not to be a model of reality, can take you to kingdoms of regal purples, soft pastels or turn back the clock to view the world in black and white.  like to look closer at objects to see its textures, patterns and shadows that are formed in this closer view with a new focus.
