Photography is
not only an art form but it is also a way of seeing the world around you. Leaning to really see what you are looking at
takes time and practice. Close-up
photography is a way of training the eye to see. It forces you to focus in on the detail of
the subject. You become aware of the lines and form of a subject within the
defined space it has been placed upon. Here
I have used two brass compasses to form lines, triangles with a circular object
to create simple designs and compositions. Observing how angular designs on black and
white surfaces can give a different depth of mood and perspective to the same
subject. Seeing your subject from
different angles and under different lighting -this the art of seeing –creativity
for the eyes.

More Faces of Exit 270 Part 12
More images of
the people that make up this place I call Exit 270. I try to move in close on my subjects while
also tying to respect their space - a difficult and sometimes an impossible
task. The camera I use is a Sony Nex 7
-small and not intrusive. The key is to
pre-focus, move quickly take the shot and move on. Sometimes I ask permission of the person, and
the subject is usually agreeable.
