Energy of Light Images by Debra Powell Photography

Photography is my key to the secret garden of life, my trip down the rabbit hole, a true magical looking glass with which I perceive the world.

I have been interested in photography since I was a child, when my parents first gifted me with their old Kodak Brownie camera. Capturing each moment of life through the camera lens has always struck me as magical and as a way to truly live in the moment. From snapshots and portraits, to fine art landscape photography, this magical process has had its way with me over the years leading me ever deeper into unity with the energy of light. Photography fills me with a sense of wonder and joy that can best be compared to the sense of unity one experiences only in prayer and meditation. Through the practice of photography, I am able translate my inner vision to the external world.

I shoot from the inside out, following my inner consciousness as it guides me to reveal the energy of the light around me. At the same time, I work deliberately, employing my learned skills and modern technology to create the final image.

I continue to be awed by the mystery of creation.
