Walking with a camera and etching trees into the velvet evening sky. The colours shift at the pace of each footfall and flush at every street light.

The Falls
It’s hard to fathom the scale of this place from these photographs but there are tiny avian specks in there – seagulls, actually – if you look very closely. The first image is layered and the second image is what the camera saw. This is the churning water at the bottom of a 165 foot drop.

Autumn Butterflies
The stemmed kind…
[It’s actually Virginia Creeper
growing on a fence,
trembling in the wind (long exposure),
and a second layer of the same thing with camera movement.
Anyway, it made me think of yellow butterflies.]
