Like all impressionistic art, soft-focus photography takes the obvious out of commonplace objects and draws attention to more fundamental elements.
Caledon photographer Pam Purves prefers a non-representational approach to photography to emphasize the essentials of colour and form. Like all impressionistic art, soft-focus photography takes the obvious out of commonplace objects and draws attention to more fundamental elements. The method requires concentration on framing, colour and graphic structure in order to achieve a sense of coherence and quiet beauty in the overall movement of shape and colour. Pam says it is her way of slowing down, simplifying life and creating a small record of the things she has noticed and appreciated. pampurvesphotography.com

"Hi Jeff and Brandy, I volunteered for four years at the Lighthouse soup kitchen here in town, and made quite a few friends there. Without it, many people would have to just do without. The food bank only gets them so far. We had people coming in and that meal was the only one they would have all day. What's worse is for people who are celiac and have gluten issues. Cheap things given by the food bank are off their list (pasta, bread, oatmeal, etc.). As for starches, rice is pretty much it. My hat is off to you both for making others aware of what they have, and what others don't."
