IRELAND

I am a great fan of Paul Caponigro, a renowned photographer and a contemporary of Ansel Adams and Minor White.  Caponigro’s ability to capture the weave of photography and spirituality was grounded in a firm grasp of every aspect of his craft.  He felt that only after attaining mastery could one be open to the, “imperceptible forces at work behind a scene.” Long before the mindfulness movement he had the ability to see/feel the sacred and transcendent moments in ordinary time.  Caponigro visited Ireland in the 60’s and produced a beautiful portfolio.  One that affected me and has informed my approach to photography.  This series is an homage to him.
