It's no secret that I'm most inspired by nature: flowers, trees, leaves, grass, clouds, sky . . . . I love it all. It's in the landscape that I find perfection: through the symmetry of a snowflake, and the quiet beauty of a perfectly realized leaf fallen to the ground. That is has grown from a seed to a tree that grows, sprouts leaves, and then morphs one
last time into this temporary perfection in the form of a fallen leaf is something worthy of divinity, because it is the beauty of life itself.

So if you've noticed I don't take pictures of people often, that's why. As a subject matter, I find the bland snapshots of smiling people posing in front of objects horrid and most dull. Taking pictures of them on the sly appeals to me even less, and at worst, makes lots of enemies who think you're looking to capture them at their most unflattering, instead of getting the point that the photographer is seeking a deeper truth than the poser wants revealed through a candid shot.

That's the thing with nature. It's always perfect as it is.
What inspires you the most?
