The camera is my tool. Through it I give reason to everything around me.

PARKING LOT, ORLEANS, ONTARIO
While talking about architecture, I feel, while there are some beautiful and innovative buildings, that much of our visual surroundings are mindnumbing. Just look at this little tree against this wall. How sad and how boring.
Of all the pictures you have uploaded recently, this is the picture I find most striking. I find it really interesting how you were able to find something so ordinary and turn it into such a striking photograph. People probably walk by this spot all the time, but they don't see it in the way it is presented here. I just wish I could upload pictures—Blogger has been giving me so many problems lately, since the new beta. I can't upload anything.
