Evoke...

Synthesizing an experience into a single word started as a game I began playing on a trip to Paris...it was a way to focus blog entries about my travels and give them meaning for my readers.

​Since then, I've come to realize it as a form of meditation...a way to feel my way to the heart of an experience...to let  judgment fall away...

The instant before that happens, the essence of the image, place, person, interaction often arises in me as a single word...a word both simultaneously devoid, and completely full, of meaning.

I invite you to play along. View my images. Notice what you feel...see...hear...sense. Allow your own word to emerge and inspirit your being

Rising...

July 11, 2016

It may be that I am finally rising from the grief of my mom's passing... and my dear cousin Sam's unexpected death... or I am reconnecting with my iPhone camera in a new way... or I finally get instagram... whatever is happening it feels like I am rising anew from ashes... to a different way of seeing... being greeted by this view was something... especially in a new home that had barely become ours...

I would have missed it if I had not arisen early... around 5:00 am... and the whole truth is I had gotten up to pee when I was overtaken with this spectacular sunrise... I knew I had only seconds to capture it before its glory faded into another perfect day on the Saratoga Passage... and there was only one camera nearby that would get the job done... thank you, Apple... I'm beginning to stray from my DSLR more and more...
