I resonate with the culture of the lands I live on now, those of the first ones here. I feel compelled to honor these indigenous people. Among their traditions is to make an offering to the earth before any important event; each day we are alive qualifies in my world!
I view my daily images – as a humble offering, a prayer to you, my community. My hope is that each picture offers an opportunity to pause for a moment of quiet to listen, and remember, our home.

A mallard couple on Golden Pond. The autumn light illuminating the cottonwood leaves is magic. What touches you about this image?
