Reaching for the Light
This is pickerel weed. It is found in ponds and wetlands. I saw this weed as I was walking through Zeeland Wetlands in Zeeland, Michigan. It was poking up in a patch of light surrounded by brush and shadow, a perfect capture to then isolate the weed and its reflection and manipulate the rest of the image into nothingness. While this is called a weed, I find it quite beautiful!

Quincy Street
Date of photo: January, 2016 Status: Destroyed by controlled incineration April, 2016 I happened upon this little house sometime in 2010. The little barn, now collapsed, was still standing, albeit with a substantial lean. There were two old tractors in front of the house and just a lot of stuff strewn about. By the time this photo was taken, most of the stuff had been removed and a lot of the land cleared. The very last time I visited the house, there was a smoldering crater in the ground and the little house was gone. Festival of the Arts 2018 Regional Arts Competition - Jury selection.

Arugula
Until I had a garden, I knew nothing of the blossoms of greens and vegetables. This is arugula and I found this little blossom to be unusual and surprisingly elegant.
