The abstract shapes and patterns that are found in life are very compelling to me. To extract them from the context of their common place surroundings is a task that I enjoy. They exist all around us yet many people never notice them. Even so they can be very beautiful. I have found in my travels of big cities around the world that the old warped glass and metal in the buildings can yield a spectacular array of reflections of our urban world. The images suggest the imperfect aspect of the activities of mankind in our attempt to control our surroundings.
