Found this while out searching the various waterways out in the country. It comes from a Maple Tree call Acer davidii, (Father David's Maple). This Chinese maple of open habit and flat-topped outline is named for its discovere, French missionary-naturalist Armond David. The scope of this name has now been widened to include a number of subspecies, previously treated as distinct species; David's original from is placed under Acer Davidii subsp. davidii. A snakebark maple, it has bark striped silvery gray on olive green background and leaves that are line pointed but mostly unlobed. Maples are unrivaled for their fall (autumn) foliage coloring and variety of leaf shape and texture. They are also grown for shade and for timber. Many are compact enough for the average garden.

Where does one start with a quick biography, which will give some insight to the artist inside? For me, photography was a way to get my feelings out by capturing moments in my life. Memories are one of the biggest ways to experience emotions of all types. Photography was that answer to capture moments that were ignored by others that would elicit an emotion. For instance, the way light can highlight an object brilliantly shadows that express mystery colors that can be dramatic or soft. To be able to do that with any form of art is important to the human psyche. We all must be able to express ourselves and my way is in black, white and color. Hope you will enjoy some of these...
