under the cedars
BX creek washes
a very tiny world.
we step carefully,
leaving no
footprints,
witness to
our passing.
like ants, we
walk our
pointless paths,
insignificant
in many ways,
and like to think
ourselves so
important.
but we are not.
a lttle water
washes
rounded rocks,
the cedars know.
that water is
essential.
we need it too,
cleansing and
refreshing,
some kindness
to our souls.
I make photos to make myself feel good; I share in hope of making you feel good. I do as much as I can in the camera, but it does not always end there.
Part of making an image in the 21st century is processing a captured image in the computer. This is like dodging and burning in the darkroom of yesterday.
I use Photoshop cc and Lightroom cc. The result is not always what I saw, maybe what I wish I saw. Sometimes, the resulting image is a creation more than a recording. Most of the time, I keep it believable and realistic.
