"I don't have anything to say in any picture. My only interest in photography is to see what something looks like as a photograph. I have no preconceptions."
Garry Winogrand (1928-1984)

mawz is a Medium Format, 35mm and digital shooter with an unhealthy interest in mixed film/digital workflows and manual focus lenses.
His primary interest is urban shooting, with a mix of street photography, architectural and cityscapes, particularly in low light and urban nature explorations. Portraiture is also an interest, although one rarely exercised fully. Work is a split between B&W and Colour depending on how the mood takes him on any day. Negative space and nature/man-made contrasts are recurring themes inmawz's work. A profound aversion to 'Golden Hour' and a love of high contrast night and noonday sun images also affects his work.
He owns way too much gear, but actually uses most of it. This space used to list it, but then he figured out that the list, like the gear, really doesn't matter. The pictures matter.
