The basic intention of my work is to visually represent concepts through juxtaposed images.

Theses
In this Thesis Report I have attempted to document the process whereby my photographic concerns shifted from images of urban life to images of the natural world, and from the use of the 35mm and 2\ format to the 8x10 format. I discuss the development of my Thesis Proposal. It began when I heard a Teisho (talk) by Eido Roshi on "the preaching of non-sentient beings." I then show how my residence at Dai Bosatsu Zen Monastery influenced the direction of my Thesis work. In this Thesis Report I also discuss in some detail my experience of the two aspects …
