Still-Life and Nature

Simplicity. I’m drawn to photography that brings calm to the chaotic. Crop away the distractions, obscure the messy in shadow and blur, draw our attention to the distinct hero of the image, and present us with a sense of peace. Space to breathe. I appreciate photographic intimacy; small scenes that draw us in close. Minimalism, providing a respite for our overstimulated minds, even if only for a brief moment. Exhale.

How lovely to have spent two decades raising and educating my children. I built my life around the very best job in existence. … Alas, children get older.

Oh, the seasons of my life. But they have brought me here, to this place of enjoying another passion; my long-held love of photography. An art and activity that has always filled my soul. And I get to do this as my second career. How blessed am I!
