Flowers & Plants
Flowers and plants seen a little differently—through light, shadow, shape, and texture. I am drawn to the character I find in them, from a flower just beginning to open to one beginning to fade. These photographs are less about identifying the plant and more about seeing the beauty and personality I find within it.

This is the Myrtle Spurge before it blooms. The developing flower tips to the side in an elegant bow, creating a graceful shape before the blossoms ever open. I was drawn to the unusual form and the quiet anticipation of what is about to emerge.
