Since 1999, I have been carrying Holgas with me everywhere I go. The vignetting and softening of the image due to the cheap plastic lens give my work a dreamy quality reminiscent of the Pictorialist Movement of the early 20th Century - with a surrealist twist. These photographs are from my ongoing "Place" series, the result of severe wanderlust. No matter where I go, I take photographs that reveal quiet moments and undiscovered corners, expose the personality of each location and otherwise transform the ordinary into the extraordinary that exists on Planet Megan.
