Fine Art Photography by Steve Terry


Artist's Statement

The words of Alfred Stieglitz, written over a hundred years ago, express very well my own feelings towards photography:

I like my photography straight, unmanipulated, devoid of all tricks ... living through its own inherent qualities and revealing its own spirit.

Making photographs is for me like meditation, a way of getting into intimate touch with the visible world around me, and through it, with myself.

I photograph anything that attracts me, excites me or moves me. I am not interested in simply recording places I have been, that to me is not art. I am interested in shapes, forms, colours and textures and find them in abundance in my local landscape. Water is my favourite subject - I love its form, its texture and its power.
