Water droplets on the surface of a mirror glow in the flash of a camera in a mirror. Below, the reflection of a hand appears to hold the drops.

Artist’s Statement

This series of photos reflects the details of the world I see when I look around me. I look up and appreciate the moon above that I see every night and take for granted, I look down at the details of nature that grow and change constantly, and I look at what’s in front of me that I don’t always take time to notice. These photos emphasize taking time in life to stop, be present, and appreciate what I see.
