From the series:  " In The Silence"

 

When  you  dream,  you  wake - recall  a  fleeting  moment.

You  may  not  remember  the  beginning  or  the  end, 

but   you  are  left  with  an  impression,

a  picture  from  a   story  that  took  place,

a  moment  of   clarity.

a

IN  THE  SILENCE

It  is  the  silent,  solitary  moment

That  becomes  art  for  me.

The  camera,  my  imagination and

A  self imposed blindness  that  guide  me.  

My  eyes,  having  given  up  the need  to  know,

Do not  see the  image  I  am  about  to  capture. 

In  this  quiet  darkness, 

The  air  grows  still, Silent.  

I listen, hear  and  feel my intuition,

Instinct   that  echoes  clearly  in   the  silence.

It  is  here that my  next  image lies.
