Reflections

Finding Inspiration in Details

An awe-inspiring sunset, a stunning gecko gracefully moving across a desert path, the vortexes in red rocks, a sea lion that poses for the camera, or the universe in a drop of water allow me to appreciate the magic surrounding us. Reflections make me ponder. Which of the two realities makes a better backdrop for a story? In respecting the environment, I open the gateway to deep work, seeking the voices of Henry David Thoreau and Rachel Carson as I attune with the Earth, my primary Muse.

Our Story

Every hike, travel, and photograph nest a story, a poem, a memory, or a vignette. Each viewshed offers an excellent opportunity to build a well-crafted background to ground a scene. Describing how a leaf glides toward the crispy dry carpet in the forest frames a delightful setting.
