These are the things I photograph, think about, get inspired by, hope for, write stories about, find beauty in, linger over, dream about, search for, listen to

I am so sad to have recently found out that one of my friends from Georgia died this past year.  James was an inspiration to much of my photographic work.  He was a wonderful storyteller and welcomed me each time I came to visit him as if I was one of the family.  You will be greatly missed Mr. Davis.  http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=49630205 View high resolution

Last time I was down in Georgia I had the pleasure of staying at “the cabin” loaned to me by my friend.  The directions to get there went something like this: “You will pass a school on your right and go over a couple of small hills. After you go over the 2nd hill, slow down… on the left is a one lane, paved driveway leading down into the woods. This goes to the cabin. Do not go straight up into the field. You’ll soon see the lake and end at the cabin….”  Since I was all alone in the cabin and secluded from the city noises I am used to, I woke up around 5 a.m., ate breakfast on the gazebo overlooking the lake, and watched a spider weave a web as the sun rose.
