“I love this quote by photographer Ralph Gibson: “I am not the music; I’m the radio through which the music plays. So I follow the work, I don’t lead the work. I go where the work sends me.”
Over the past two years, the work has been sending me into our yard, on the roof, to hiking trails and anywhere I can discover leaves to photograph. I don’t collect or arrange them. I just photograph them. This wasn’t my idea. It just started happening. I was even forced (by the leaves themselves) to purchase a new camera with a larger sensor so that the prints would have more image fidelity (more grey tones between black & white)
