Street Photographer

It is odd to me that during the process of working I have discovered that I am:
An Artist,
A Printmaker,
A Photographer,
A Collector
and that one of the things I am is a "Street Photographer"

Another Sort of Divine Decline

I have a series called Divine Decline.
My series is about the soft, sad deterioration of once beautiful buildings.
This turned into my book - also called "Divine Decline."

Another photographer: Kevin Bauman has recorded the "hulling out" of Detroit - the once proud home of Motown and of motor manufacturing for the USA.
