               One of the things that I noticed when taking photographs of the enormous snowfall we had in New England last year was the shadows and curvatures of the accumulated snow taken in black and white. As someone remarked upon seeing these earlier,the overall impression was otherworldly-as if the photographs had been taken on the surface of a distant planet in another solar system. Personally I always viewed the Earth not as one world but as a massive cosmic Eco-system encompassing many unique and different worlds within it. Its similar to the idea that a work of art is always there-on the canvas,in the clay or whatever the medium used. And its up to the artist to release that art from behind the barrier keeping it from us. I can only hope that,from behind the camera lens that I have done the same.
