Q&A

  Why do you think your photo should win the Photo of the Year (POTY) Contest?
Motion, lovely background accentuated with a perfect composition; a three dimensional effect takes the viewer into the middle of action. Above all, a tale of human life.

Who do you think is your biggest competitor?
I do not think on those terms. I am my own competitor. Every new day presents a new challenge and it aids my learning curve.

How long have you been a photographer?
For the last  7 years.

What does photography mean to you?
My passion to catch the mystery of man and the chemistry of human life.

What does your ideal day with a camera look like?
When I find that it is not me but my camera that takes me wherever it likes.

Why should the flock vote for your photo?
The flock knows that a good photo should win. I have faith in their eyes.
