Artist Statement

The reason why I love taking photographs is because photos can freeze time. Photos are the closes things we have to an actual time machine. By looking at a photo we can take a glimpse of the past. Photos can take us all the way back to the civil war. They can make us remember how cute our children were or funny story at a party. Photos tell a story no matter how simple it is. I take photos to tell a story to other people.

Woodpecker Wing

Woodpecker Wing: This is a photo of a woodpecker that was caught while we were banding hawks. It is a funny story of how we caught it. We were waiting for a hawk to fly by when we all see the woodpecker hopping around just outside of the blind. Then the woodpecker suddenly jumps into the net and they caught a woodpecker! I love the focus on this photo I got of the bird. It shows the hairy's spots really well, and is a great wing shot.
