The gallery includes examples of my photographic work past and present. I have nearly 40 years of media experience - photography, television production and the printed page. My media background, combined with modern digital scanning technology, image manipulation applications and modern printing techniques allow me to experiment in ways not possible in the traditional darkroom. The old adage 'a camera never lies' may be true, but that truth has always been selective and open to interpretation; similarly the photographer has always been able to perform tricks. I made this 1960 portrait by double exposure in a quarter-plate camera. Restoration, retouching, and applying special effects filters all constitute image manipulation; it's just a matter of degree. But the more drastic changes to an image go way beyond retouching. Today, image manipulation has simply reached greater heights. My gallery has examples. |
