"Tree Light One" The Highlands Plateau, North Carolina
DIGITAL CAPTURE f11 @ 160th sec
"Environments by reason of their total character are mostly subliminal to ordinary experience." - Marshall McLuhan
Light changes everything. A winter's tree, barren and reaching for the sky becomes a thing of great detail and sublime beauty when the light brings out each branch clearly. It is the light which creates us to look, especially something that we pass by daily. The mundane and the casual ordinariness that comes when we take for granted the nature which we grow so accustomed to may surprise us. But paying attention is the only way we can see beyond the norm. It is what makes photography such an amazing art form to practice, more so than any creative medium except filmmaking.
I look up and see the tree and the light and can't help but attempt to sing praises for my eye can see creation in a magical way that is purely by grace...
