The movement of the model, the wind and the waves captured in a long moment. The stillness and clarity of the grass in the lower right grounds all the blurred movement

Ice melting from my gutters. The water drips created tiny lenses that refracted the light in the best ways. #art #photography #videography

8 hours from high to low tide in Youngs Bay, Astoria, Oregon #art #videography #photography

Behind a warehouse in Astoria on the Riverwalk

My vision was to capture a long exposure still with the wind blowing the dune grasses and dress to capture the blur of time passing. Works well as a movie, too #art #photography

Time takes its toll #art #photography

Time passes externally

Pre-storm clouds at midnight on a full moon night, Orion in the background and a power line in the wind

I lose myself in a moment at times. An overwhelming sense of “now” and “here” and “me”… It’s wonderful just being and accepting as truth all that’s there A sense of balance and substance and belonging

Flowing water is the best metaphor for a life. The flow changes the world as it moves in fleeting interactions, floods of emotions, carrying burdens that eventually get left behind on the shore. Eventually, the flow of a life will leave a mark on the world. Be a flow that leaves the Grand Canyon

I like capturing a long moment in time as a still image - the movement of the water and leaves blurring to infer the waves and wind. More than just an instant as the shutter clicks. Several heartbeats as the world continues on…

Salmon pens and fishing boats on Youngs Bay, Astoria, OR

This one totally encapsulates my mood lately. Listen to the lyrics and imagine the rock as my brain grappling with grief from a short but intense relationship that has ended for reasons I’m still not clear about…
