We humans are products of a visual culture, and we understand the world through sight. Sight is our last, and highest sense, and that which, perhaps, makes us the most human. Our eyes sit high on our bodies, and vision allows us to experience the light in profound ways.

Welcome to my new tumblelog. Since Tumblr has such great features, I’m thinking about using this space for my full-time blog, and letting my gallery just be my homepage. I’ll decide soon.

This shot is one of my first truly good photos, I think. It was taken in the fall of 2007 at the Georgia National Fair in Perry, GA. I thought it might be a good starting point.

Snow Day

What a fun day it was. We rarely get snow here in central Georgia, and when we do, everything shuts down. I think this was the most snow we’ve had since I’ve lived here. Autumn and I sat inside most of the day to watch it fall.

She likes to play it the snow, but I just like to look at it. You know: from inside. Where it’s warm.
