I enjoy creating photographs to show my perspective of places and things. I strive to document things I may not see again through my photos

Photography is my favorite type of art. I enjoy macro and nature photography. Macro is one of my favorites because you can explore a world that is rarely seen clearly with the naked eye.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in nature and from my family. I am inspired by the beauty in the small things surrounding us that go unnoticed in detail. The rare phenomena in nature are truly inspiring as well as the geometry surrounding us.
What would you do with $25,000?If I received $25,000, I would invest in my future creativity by creating a secure account to help start selling prints of my work and travel to produce more photos at places i sould love to document through my lens.
