I like taking photographs of hidden places that are often overlooked by other photographers. After all, much of the subject matter that we see has been photographed time and again. To distinguish oneself, a photographer must rely on an inner sense of beauty and perspective which is hopefully unique. When my wife, Ann, and I were exploring a Roman villa at Oplontis, most of the touring photographers were in a vast fresco-adorned dining room taking photos already represented in numerous art history books, and duplicating each other's work. Next to that room was a dark hallway with rich colors and frescoes. A beam of light appeared from an entry way. It was there that I took some of my best photographs. We were alone.
Properly displayed with focused beam lighting, the light will transcend the photo paper, creating a luminescent glow almost resembling a back-lit display. In a home, restaurant, or gallery, my photographs will evoke a passionate response that will not diminish with time.
