Streetart. On a gray sidewalk with a few spots, a giraffe (named Margaret) and a gray ground flap with 3D effect were drawn on the ground with chalk. The spots on the ground were integrated into the drawing. Now the head of a contented-looking giraffe looks up at us from a hole with two open flaps. Title: "Margaret lives in a basement
apartment with the best possible view."

It was early Sunday morning a couple years ago, and I hit the road early to drive north out of Ann Arbor, Michigan. The way the sun was shining through the trees and onto the road, the green of the trees, the blue of the sky....I just had to pull over to get this shot.

A tree-lined street on a sunny blue-sky day in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The shot was taken from the middle of the road, showing the yellow line of the road as it disappears from sight in this straight-on shot. Houses are on the left side of the street and a soccer field with a fence is on the left side of the street.

I’m finally heading home to Virginia after two months in Michigan settling my dad’s and brother’s estates. On the way home, I returned to the University of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Garden in Ann Arbor. I last visited a couple of years ago when I needed my soul to heal, and coming back now — stronger, steadier — closed the loop on everything that’s happened since.

People sometimes tell me to put down the camera and “just enjoy the moment,” but the photograph is what brings the moment back. And even for someone who’s never been there, an image can still matter. A photo doesn’t transfer my memories — it sparks theirs. Light, color, and mood give the viewer something to connect with, even without knowing what I was going through when I pressed the shutter.

The garden remains a peaceful place for my heart and soul.

A colorful garden filled with dense clusters of flowers in purple, red, magenta, and yellow, arranged along a curved gravel path. Tall green trees and shrubs frame the background while the layered blooms create a bright, textured mix of shapes and colors in the foreground.

I was on my way to the pottery studio late this afternoon -- a route that I take nearly every day. But I saw this view differently than I had previously.

I call it, “Water Tower Imitates Sky”.

A late afternoon photo of a street scene. In the distance is a water tower painted sky blue with white fluffy clouds, and the name Ann Arbor painted in black lettering on its bulbous top. In the background is the sky that is blue with white/grey fluffy clouds. Photo taken on Plymouth Rd. off of Nixon Rd. in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

People sometimes tell me to put down the camera and “just enjoy the moment,” but making the photograph is how I engage with the moment. A picture isn’t like a family home movie that only matters if you know the people.

A photograph stands on its own, the same way art in a museum does. Some images connect, some don’t — and the viewer brings their own meaning to it. That’s why I keep making photographs.

A vibrant garden scene with tall clusters of purple flowers in the foreground, mixed with scattered red blooms. Behind them stands a wooden pergola supported by stone columns, partly covered in climbing plants. Dense green trees and shrubs fill the background, creating a peaceful, layered landscape.
