Light


Light is the soul of art; the giver of color. It transforms all that lies in darkness toward vibrant entity. The deep red of dawn warms cold mountain faces. The evening yellow gives all things a brilliant glow, as the breeze flows through leaves and branches. Even in the bleakness of an all gray sky, light softly touches the world around us. It brings balance to composition; illuminating intricacies and casting contrasting shadows. Light evokes emotion and delivers meaning. It brings life to the lifeless.

 

Light is a simple thing; one that reveals the earth's infinite complexities. It casts refinement onto the most plain of objects; turning the forests and the fields into luminous day dreams. It has the ability to cast patterned shadow. It kisses the skin with warmth and gives the eyes a brilliant gleam. It shows love and laughter, pain and heartache, birth and death. It is the basis of everything we know.

 

Perhaps this is the reason God saw fit to create it first, and to call it good thereafter.


All my days I have chased the light; through translucence of a camera's view. Forever in awe of creation's beauty; inspired to share my perspective. I endeavor to capture even a small percentage of the artistry that is life in this world. Carefully framing where light touches creation; waiting for that click to preserve a moment in time forever.
