My name is Scott Pederson, I am 41 yrs of age but really only going on 17. I live in a small suburb of the twin cities in MN.

My name is Scott Pederson, I am 41 yrs of age but really only going on 17. I live in a small suburb of the twin cities in MN. I have been taking pictures all my life, however not very many of them have been any good. I love the visual arts, especially photography. As a form of communication photography has to be universally the purest form. Done well, can convey immediate emotion, provide a moment of inspiration or even teach us a lesson or two. Images can be quiet opportunities to remember, remind, reflect, rethink and relate.

Today, it seams in some ways, that communication has become increasingly difficult as is its complexity. Information, its sheer quantity, availability and relevance seem to outgrow itself daily. At times, the words we use seem to pile upon themselves to the point of falling over, requiring even singular use a further explanation. A picture however, very simply, as someone once said, can be worth a thousand words, or as I like to think save a person a thousand words.

...Save a breath and take a picture, then share it.

I hope you feel my pictures have been worth your time. Thanks for looking at them.

Scott
