Lorraine's Photo's

Hello - why am I here - not sure - what type of photography do I like - not sure about that either - what I do know is that I would rather be behind the camera than in front of it - and I find images compelling - that could be images of people, or landscapes, or buildings.

A picture has to draw me in though - have an air of mystery around it that makes you wonder about that person, place or building - what are they thinking, what happened there.

My interest was sparked by taking sporting photo's of my son playing rugby - getting the expressions of determination and passion - capturing a unique moment in their life - the successes and disappointments.

When taking pictures of places or buildings I focus on some low level detail - a section of architecture, the detail of a tree trunk or its roots.

A photograph should make you want to know more - and invoke memories of a person, time or place in your life.  And I want to take photo's like that.
