The transition of beauty from day to night is a wondrous adventure in many ways. For me, the beauty is bright lights that glow in the backdrop of the evening sky; particularly neon. With its robust colors and signage shapes it conveys a message and style for all to enjoy. The visual message may be a unique type style, shape or perhaps even a characterization. Either way, some talented artist/designer created the signage masterpiece that glows with brilliance. Utilizing their skills and talents in creativity and concept, the artist creates a design while mastering the technologies of gas and glass. The creation is bended and shaped into an image that, when electrified, glows in radiant colors. Neon sign styles have influenced sign makers who take pride in their ability to design and style a visual beauty in glowing glass tubes. Neon style signs work hand and hand. Vintage neon tubes filled with gas vs the modern day fluorescent tubes that glow bright light in the evening sky. I have been photographing neon signs and scenic night environments for the past 40 years. Some of my photos are historical vintage images as well as modern day/night beauties. My images are created smoothly and easily for the viewers eye and mind. Simply said: “You see it, you get it, now enjoy it.” It is with this style of beauty, I present to you—“Lights, Night: NEON” Photographs that glow.
