The Art of CSCS Digital Imaging

I've been experimenting in how to express the process of my art form. Almost without exception people who see a larger canvas for the first time are amazed that they really are a photograph. Yet from a distance, it is still your first impression. The 14 month journey it took to develope this unique technique was well worth the labour of love. Last fall I challanged the head of the photography department at a community collage in Ontario to figure out what my process was, they're still working on it.

Here is the essence of my journey. In most cases when you blow up a photo it becomes less appealing as it blurs and the image softens. Clarity was my challange. A CSCS Image becomes more facinating as the image increases in size. Defined edges, enhanced contrast and then some facinating details emerge that almost always captures your imagination.

I think this poster will help to show that process better. I'm very prowd of my work and I hope you'll enjoy them.

Orchids

Could Orchids be the most beautiful floral family. If they aren't they would certainly rank near the very top in my books.

Orchids most certainly demonstrates mother natures greatest form of creativity. Their whimsical forms range from simple understated eloquence to near alien porportions. Each colored in liquid transparent hues that at times defy any human generated color palette. If that wasn't enough mother nature presents these florial gems to us on a single pendulous stem suspending it so as to present it like a piece of sculpture or art.

Enjoy the collage presented here and look for the addition of a gallery in the "Special Interest Gallery" coming soon.
