Uncomfortable Beauty
To me, the picture of the ants on the wild teasel forms a clear metaphor for climate change. I am afraid that the ants did not survive the flooding because the flowers were completely submerged at the height of the flood. more

At a time when questions of representation and representativeness are often raised in documentary photography, it's interesting to note how a singular approach manages to stand out and offer a more subjective view of a subject. more
History of Art and Landscape – Part Four
Continuing our look at the history of landscape, I was looking for the next significant artists or art after the Dutch Golden Age, which I talked about in the previous article.

Don’t allow for this coming fall—or any season for that matter—to just go by ever again. Take a closer look at the leaves all over the ground. Stop and smell the fragrance of damp earth and decaying foliage. more
