My photographic work continues to explore the tradition of street photography as demonstrated by Henri Cartier Bresson, Garry Winogrand, Robert Frank, Lee Friedlander, Diane Arbus, Robert Adams, and William Eggleston. In aspiring to emulate such fore-runners of photography, I am not trying to imitate their styles as much as I am trying to understand their approaches to photography and their individual visions of the world.

The finished, uncropped, and successful photo should be one that concisely reflects the feeling and energy engaged on “the street.” The photo, rigorously structured, gracefully incisive, and dialectically ironic, should consciously or unconsciously point to a life beyond the scope of the photo’s frame edge. To find such images is part of the wonderful challenge that the art of photography poses to the photographer.
