“Cerebral Shallows”

Willows thriving in early spring’s melting snow.

“Branching on Branching”

I’m a fan of epiphytes like anyone else - especially when they mimic the form of the phorophyte like this here bryophyte.

An experiment of light, shadows, and shape on a rock face.

“Juxtapose”

Early spring exploration.
Clouds rolling in and out, in and out.
The sound of a trickling creek.
A forest waking.
Warmer days ahead.

“Hypnosis”

“I dream an inescapable dream in which I take away from the country the bridges and roads, the fences, the strung wires, ourselves, all we have built and dug and hollowed out, our flocks and herds, our droves of machines.

I restore then the wide-branching trees.
I see growing over the land and shading it the great trunks and crowns of the first forest.
I am aware of the rattling of their branches, the lichened channels of their bark, the saps of the ground flowing upward to their darkness.
Like the afterimage of a light that only by not looking can be seen, I glimpse the country as it was.
All its beings belong wholly to it. They flourish in dying as in being born. It is the life of its deaths.

I must end, always, by replacing our beginning there, ourselves and our blades, the flowing in of history, putting back what I took away, trying always with the same pain of foreknowledge to build all that we have built, but destroy nothing.

My hands weakening, I feel on all sides blindness growing in the land on its peering bulbous stalks.
I see that my mind is not good enough.
I see that I am eager to own the earth and to own men.
I find in my mouth a bitter taste of money, a gaping syllable I can neither swallow nor spit out.
I see all that we have ruined in order to have, all that was owned for a lifetime to be destroyed forever.

Where are the sleeps that escape such dreams?”

“The Ritual”

I’ve added 15 new images to my website under my PNW spring section. Most images were taken while exploring areas I’ve never visited this past spring. The image above was from an area described as “sacred” when speaking to the ranger about it and that tracks with my own experience in that area.

“A Guided Experience”

Somewhere west of the Cascade crest where the vine maple weaves its way through the coniferous forest.

“Flutter”

A grove of Douglas fir surrounded by fall-colored vine maples, captured in autumn 2024.

I’ve been spending more time photographing close to home lately, and it seems the wet summer really set us up for an exceptional year of fall color. The maples, cottonwoods, aspens, and other deciduous trees are all looking vibrant and healthy — and even the smaller plants, like bushes and ferns, are thriving. Camping has been a pleasure too, with cool temperatures and no mosquitoes. I’m stoked for more fall camping soon.
