Bio

Photo of John HardingI’m a photographer, a graphic designer, a web developer, and also a geologist. I create because I enjoy it.

I currently live in Houston, Texas and work as a geologist on offshore deepwater oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico. Before that I spent 17 years living in a cabin in the woods in Alaska.

I have worked professionally as a graphic artist, web designer, system administrator and computer technician. I have also worked as a sound engineer because I love music. It is my love for music that makes me want to take photos of concerts.

I also love to travel and want to see the world.  My photos are for the memories.  I’m hoping to capture the interesting, strange, bizarre, odd, and unique.

I was born with a camera in my hand and it shapes the way I look at the world.  I want to create with light and motion.  My goal is to capture the energy and emotion of a time and place.  Other times I just want to document the fun stuff I see along the way.

 

“Inspiration, move me brightly,
light the song with sense and color,
hold away despair.
More than this I will not ask
faced with mysteries dark and vast
