This collection of 35 images is at its heart an exploration of change.  From the moment we first open our eyes, change is inevitable.  Change isn't just a part of life;  it's life itself.  We see this fact echoed in nature each year:  green canopies erupt into colorful palettes of yellow, red, and orange;  the leaves' hues traverse the color spectrum toward a finish line of muted browns.  The trees shed their coats, changing form to prepare for the long winter ahead.

Similar changes happen in all our lives as we go along; they're also evident in my photography portfolio, which stretches back almost 20 years.  Old habits fade, new skills flourish, and the result is a woven tapestry of self-improvement.  In this collection, I've gathered an eclectic mix of fall photos (it's my favorite season, after all), ranging from my earliest snaps to my most recent work.  Wide panoramas, macro shots, long exposure waterfalls, astrophotography...  They're all a part of my photographic journey!

Stay Golden:  The Fall Collection

If you were given the chance to live forever, would you take it?  What stipulations would you require to make the deal?  Would you demand to stay in your fittest youthful form, a gold standard to stand the tests of time?  Or would you request a slow senescence, a fade and fall over a thousand years, finite in length, but enough to see it all...
