more island life



at dawn on Steele's Island the ground is covered with a thin fur of ice



essentially the island is a midden composed of enormous shells


moss grows almost to the waters' edge






a stitched and felted landskin soaking in the briny rivermouth before baptism in the dyebath

  9. what a beautiful poetic set of images. when I view your work I know why you photograph thus. giving your passion attention. or, as I used to call it: taking part in that free home study course from the cosmos.
