Beautifully Complicated

B&W 2026 18/365

Life feels like this sometimes … a tangled, noisy mess. But if you just step back, you realize the chaos creates its own kind of pattern.

I mostly take “proper” photos that make sense when you look at them. But while I’m out on the trail searching for things like birds, wildlife, or interesting landscapes, I’ll often also takes shots of random plants, rocks, or in this case tree branches reflecting in the still river.

Later, when I’m home on the computer editing, these are the images that usually make me stop to think … about life and other things.

I can’t draw or paint very well. But these type of images are probably as close as I come to producing something in the realm of “art” with my camera, as opposed to just something easily recognizable as a photograph.
