ABOUT MY ABSTRACT PHOTOGRAPHY

I love to use photography is any way possible in my work. We live in a generation that accepts photography as an art form. When I take a photograph I never know what I am going to do with it in advance. I have achieved some of the best results by digitally enhancing some of the most ordinary images.

To me, the abstraction will result in one of two ways, either by the uniqueness of the original photograph or, in the extreme digital enhancement of an ordinary image.

Either way if the end result is fresh and different, I leave it alone and let it speak for itself. To me this is no different than creating an original oil painting or mixed-media painting

"Caddo Lake, Place of Dreams" is an exhibition of Original Paintings, Drawings and Fine Art Photography by Bruce Tinch. The exhibit celebrates the contribution of Mrs. Lady Bird Johnson and her life-time of work dedicated to natural conservation and beautification programs using wildflowers, as well as her work for wetland conservation and anti-litter campaigns. Viewers will be emerged in a unique total experience of the senses including natural swamp sounds playing through the museum, tanks of live water lilies in the main museum lobby, and tree limbs covered with Spanish moss.

The exhibition was launched at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center in Austin, Texas in September 2008 and was claimed by the Center as the best exhibition they ever housed, attracting a large attendance from all over the U.S.
