Pressure

I’ve always had a fascination with water towers. I’m not sure what it is about them but since I was a kid I’ve been attracted to them. During my trip to the rust belt, I took the opportunity to shoot a lot of water towers. Many of which I’m sure I will post on the site.

The potential energy of these towers is very interesting. Huge amounts of water stored in a tank on top of a building could have devistating effects. At the same time they represent an early technology that provided access to water and water pressure for buildings and whole communities.

This shot was taken in Toledo, Oh at sunset.  The building is located right downtown along the Maumee river and serves as a reminder of simpler days.

Denver Night Sky

Denver shines as brightly as the moon in this luminous photograph taken from my own backyard.  Shooting at night may present its challenges but the slowed process invites me to capture the light with care and precision.

A Home in the Stars

You can get lost staring up into the night sky.  In this photo, the house feels like it is floating in an ethereal plane that glows and shimmers with light cast from millions of miles away.  The city frequently obscures the stars, so I was mesmerized during an artist retreat to Conifer where this photgraph was taken.
