A vision is what we see through our eyes, we try to memorize the vision we see, our memory sometimes fades and this vision is often lost. We use the camera to record the vision we see with our eyes, so keeping the vision forever. My website is a vision of what I see through my eyes and wish to share with others. By doing this, I feel I am passing my vision onto others through my photography, so that they can enjoy the beautiful world we live in.And I thank you for taking time to browse through my galleries! I hope to encourage people to get out and explore their natural surroundings and outdoor spaces close to home.
