The presentation centers on my disciplined effort to discover my personal style.

1) —Juxtapositions: contrasting, complementary, and ironic.
2) —Blind Spots: using a phone camera and selfie stick
3) —The Uncommon Common
4) —Easter Eggs
5) —Everyday Oddities
6) —Humor

Relative to his ongoing efforts to learn the deep skills of photography, Steve describes himself as an, “old man in a hurry”.
