Welcome to Timeline Photos. A few years back I started peeking around my archives in search of some of the first photographs I had taken. Here records my quest into better understanding my long term love of camera and experiencing the world with it in hand. All photos appear in chronological order hopefully revealing an evolution of how I see and what moves me to speak with light.

Saving the "sour" flowers







This little shoot turned into another case of first being taken in by the colors only to find myself appreciating the monochrome images more. 


We have the softest earth underneath the Live Oak that sits in our front yard.  Out of it a mixture of grasses and the tiniest of flowers has grown, making it quite beautiful with the surrounding azaleas.  While cutting the grass, I just had to stop and save hundreds of these "sour" flowers from their doom.  (They're edible and very tangy)

I was feeling supernova sensory in the midst of the sights, textures, and smells, and wondered after the fact about the chances that someone viewing the images would share those feelings.  It would be a "Like Water for Chocolate" phenomenom but in the context of photography.  What people experience or don't experience when viewing my photos can be surprising, but it's all so cool when we connect.
