Imaginations from Escapades

After I finished my high school, I joined a shipping company as a sailor so that I could travel and see the world. I have a Second Officer who taught me how to read the stars and constellations in the sky and we would encounter dolphins and mesmerizing phytoplanktons (the phytoplanktons light up the sea with their soft mysterious glow). These incredible experiences are deeply entrenched in my memories. These memories lead me to gravitate towards nature in my photography, to seek and capture these unique encounters and experiences. Working through my process of experiencing nature, I look for the fabrics of nature. And these often come in interesting patterns and designs that captivates me. When I engage my subject, I sometime imagine and preconceived the outcome of the image. And then weaved out the imagination with my camera. These preconceived images are often a reflection of the deep thoughts and experiences which I encountered during my escapades to various places.
