Description

Pelicans...I could watch them for hours. The fly over the water with such grace and very controlled..then they spot dinner...and they dive down and take what is theirs...The world is full of beauty. Everywhere we look there is something of beauty- a tree, a flower, a bee on a plant, a falling leaf, clouds, a sunset, a bird resting on a limb, a smiling face. If we just take the time to slow down and revel in this miracle that we call earth, we would be more at peace and more content…….In our modern culture, most folks are on autopilot- going through each day asleep–using each moment as a means to get to the next moment. Not truly understanding the power of each moment. I see my photography as a way to capture the ordinary, everyday things in a way that even the most unconscious person will recognize their beauty- each piece of nature is a reflection of god… beauty can be found in the most common-even people… we all have a story to tell. I have a lot to learn but think I am on the right path:)

My photos are also a reflection of my own personal spiritual journey where I have come to relish in the most unassuming things….Remember…..“When you really want something, the universe always conspires in your favor.”
