Something about a snowstorm and an isolated road. I felt like I was the only person in the world.
And a cool gateway to go through to get to the other people in the world. Felt like I was in some sort of fairytale that night.
Who doesn't love the cranes all over downtown? I don't know if its the idea of expansion, growth, or just a really powerful machine. Just love them.

There is so little detail in the image, and yet it is so powerful. A few delicate lines and a light grey background and I instantly get the feel of a snow covered hillside. Snow is so pretty when you are not stuck in it. Reminds us that less is sometimes more.

Wow. I would love to be able to walk around in this space. I love the idea of installation, but never can seem to come up with an idea that will work with my art. Always gives me something to think about.
I couldn't get just the figure in the skirt dancing, so I brought the whole thing in. I really want to photograph a dancer. I think it would be amazing to capture the motion blur of them mid dance step, or even, like this image, to stop them in mid-motion on a really impressive dance move. I think this image is so beautifully lit, and because of the position the dancer is frozen, the image become somewhat ambiguous.
