Ted Seymour - Explorations of Truth
I’ve been enjoying photography for most of my life now. Some might even call me a “photographer” but to me, it’s simply one of my many things I love. I’m hesitant to accept the formal “photographer” label, preferring to allow photography to move through me rather than fitting myself into a mold of what that […]
I wandered some of the streets, alleyways, and courtyards of Kathmandu yesterday, partly as a photographic excursion and also to get a first hand glimpse of the effects of the recent earthquakes. The first thing I noticed is that, with a camera in my hand, beauty seems to appear most everywhere I look. It is […]

It’s been a somewhat strange experience as it has simply felt like my right index finger has been unable to press the shutter button on my camera. It has a sense of emasculation to […]
It didn’t take long. Yesterday I fell in love with Sri Lanka. Actually it’s almost as if I fell in love with Life, for life is happening here, it’s right here in Colombo on the streets, waiting for a bystander such as myself to get drawn into its ballet. I am realizing how much I […]
