…the human race…
...industry… technology… virtual reality…
...we have it all…

…as a species … we have become adept in building a complex
puzzle of constructed worlds …
…the generation of genius…
…the creators of the impossible…
… if you step back from it… it hardly seems real…
… our forefathers would be so proud… amazed by all we have
achieved…
… or would they … ?

…and I can't help but wonder whether the world we have
constructed has really been built with wisdom…
...or whether our wisdom is silently being lost…
...along with all that came before…

...for as long as I can remember I have been fascinated by stories of all kinds; both real and imaginary... and I love the way my camera allows me to explore, dream, and create …

… I am particularly interested in exploring ideas about the experience of journey, the elements of identity, the nature of the human spirit, and how we find and define our place in this world…
