Most of the surroundings we drive through are ignored and unnoticed as we go about our daily lives. We reach a state of oblivion, living in a cycle of the same routine, and it goes unrecognized until a fair amount of time has already passed us by. I photograph to capture qualities found in nature while recording glimpses of time. I think of my photographs as a metaphor of how quickly time escapes us. We are constantly moving forward, thinking of tomorrow, and our days tend to blend together. The subtle changes in landscapes, the differences in color, and the rhythm of the way the land moves while the sky stands still are all aspects we encounter while traveling this beautiful Earth we inhabit. My work is a visual representation of the past three months, documenting time painted with natural light.born digitalStudent worksengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
