One always returns from journeys with a slew of photographs. Driving through the Appalachian Mountains, I felt like I was on an image quest. I would like to carry this adventurous spirit into my everyday life. I want to see my city, my home and my friends with the same eyes I see autumn forests, wild horses, and dirt trails disappearing in slants of shadow and light.

For me, there is nothing better than natural light, the gray and gold and red and yellow sky. I like shadows. I don’t like images void of shadows. They appear as advertisements, the people resembling products more than personalities. Like Edward Abbey said: “You can’t study the darkness by flooding it with light.”
