Profile
I use a Pentax Ist*DS, a camera with a ridiculous name but wonderful otherwise.
Processing is minimal; cropping and tweaks to lighting and contrast are basically it, unless specifically noted.
What you see is what I and the camera agreed we had seen together.
Please feel free to browse and comment; I always appreciate feedback, including constructive criticism and questions.
I also have work available at
Zenfolio, at sungazer.zenfolio.com
ArtFire, at sungazer.artfire.com
Etsy, at sungazer.etsy.com

Sparrows Falling
The sparrows are falling and rising like leaves, whirling in the winds like we do in the currents of our lives…
Prayer Wheel

Barn
Across the room I can hear the labored breathing of a sleeping sow. She is a vast expanse of flesh, pink and swollen below, ivory-colored bristles above….
Mole
A mole is three times the length of a cat’s paw. It lies limp and heavy beneath the picnic table, its pelt gritty from being rolled back and forth in the wet sand….
