Framed In Time

“Framed in Time—a space where I return to a single photograph and reflect on the moment it was made. Each frame I choose has stayed with me—sometimes because of the technical challenge, sometimes because of the light, the place, the people I was with, or the feeling that came with standing behind the camera. Often, it’s all of those things at once.”

March 2025 - Framed In time

This gnarled juniper feels like a sculpture carved by time—its twisted limbs and fractured trunk telling a quiet but powerful story of endurance in a harsh landscape. You can sense the age and resilience in its form. The light wraps delicately around its bark, emphasizing texture without flattening the image, and the composition encourages a slow, attentive viewing.
