Disappearing into Still Life
The calm of feeling unattached to the sense of self while so absorbed in the work becomes a creator's persona. I am not aware of myself nor my surroundings when I am immersed in the frame I am laboring over. I mentally disappear into Still Life photography.
Milky Way and Waterfalls | Northern California
A few years ago on a road trip north, I managed to stop to photograph the Milky Way and a few waterfalls. I was on my way to attend a workshop in the Mount Rainier National Park in Washington. Despite there being so little rain and snow in northern California the previous winter, the waterfalls did not disappoint. And, the Milky Way, well, it's always awesome!

Kitchen Window View | still life photography
Finding the pretty in your everyday can seem a bit daunting. But, it's there if you look. I can see it especially well when I'm looking at the light. And, that's really what photography is about. Light. These photos of my kitchen sink window view were shot using back light.
