TREES
Trees stand with such grace, power and tenacity. I marvel at how they thrive in the harshest of natural conditions as well as manage to survive man’s destructive greed and ignorance. How each individual tree defines its place within nature is something I often reflect upon. Every tree is such a remarkable work of art – I strive to capture something of their incredible life force in my photos.
Trees are sanctuaries. Whoever knows how to speak to them, whoever knows how to listen to them, can learn the truth. They do not preach learning and precepts, they preach undeterred by particulars, the ancient law of life – Hermann Hesse
