“Music chose me but photography needed me. The Gods of music on the mountain on the Right were called upon by the mountain of photography as art on the Left.They said “We are so young and know so little can you please give us something from your realm, somebody to come to invest our photography with the power of music?” So I became a photographer. The Gods of music sent me over. In both cases I was chosen by music in order to put it into photography.”

Paul photographs a simple sunflower. In his hands, it becomes something magical. He reminds us that you don’t need to travel ten thousand miles to find beauty—it can be waiting just outside your door. Thank you, Paul, for showing us wonder in the simplest of things and reminding us all to find beauty in the everyday.
