The foray into abstract photography has very much been a voyage of exploration and discovery. Along the way, I have learned to control the various techniques and improved my visualization skills, so that I can figure out how to get the image that I want just using the camera.
The process is a combination of taking in the landscape or environment, in which I find myself, allowing myself to become absorbed by my surroundings, and then opening my mind’s eye, so that I can see the morphed image.
These images are a series that I shot while visiting my mother in the Netherlands. It’s a view of a wall covered with variegated vine; when I saw it, I noticed that there were some hidden patterns that were trying to emerge into the visible dimension. I titled this series Cryptomorphosis 1-4, using the Greek roots for hidden and form.
I’m curious to hear what you see in these images.

Thank you! I still find new entities in some of this series from time to time. There is so much under the surface!
Lovely work!
Thank you very kindly!
Great photos! (as always!)
To me, these images evoke a feeling of speeding through a jungle; the lines giving the impression of speed and the white light being my destination… Very cool!
Thank you kindly, Shaun!
I really like your sense of motion that you get in these images; that definitely is a big part of it for me, as we’re moving through the universe at incredible speeds without realizing it…
I love the bottom shot, where the leaves show through a sheer curtain of motion, as if being sucked into a vortex.
Thank you, Marie! Indeed, it feels like there’s a hint of connection between multiple dimensions in that image.
