Denver Photographer Jim Milmoe notices compositions as he drives, walks and travels. Then with a precise crop through the viewfinder and a quick click of the shutter a “Photo Painting” is created. These photos are abstract in design, but one could not call them non-objective because they are not inventions of the mind, but real walls and signs we all view, but few notice their artistic qualities.
