Arequipa - Peru, known as the white city was founded over three hundred and fifty years ago by the Spanish conquistadores. Situated in the central cordillera of the Andes (7800ft), it is a quiet city struggling to reconcile the glorious past, and the undertain future.
The Santa Catalina Monestary provides a respite from work, travel and congestion - i found it to be an ideal place to photograph one afternoon in April.

i like photography; in fact, it is my passion - i could tell you a lot of things about me but I really don't know which one you might find interesting - so I'll let my photos do the talking
as a photographer, i document the interplay between the subject, surroundings, and light
photography is a conscious and deliberate positioning of an entire moment
frame the image - focus, use light, everything must stop for fractions of time - everything converges
time stands still for an instant - documenting now - people, buildings, cars, activities and how it comes together to create the image in my mind
properly capture the interaction of subjects & light to present an image with dignity and integrity is the focus
photography must add to the collective conscious - not subtract from the good
