Quotes<\/strong><\/p>\n

“The key to becoming a confident and creative photographer is in how we think. If we believe this one image is going to look a certain way\u2014perhaps tack sharp and very literal\u2014will we even consider the possibility that this particular scene or subject might be better expressed as an abstract?<\/em>” — David DuChemin<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Go and make interesting mistakes, make amazing mistakes, make glorious and fantastic mistakes. Break rules. Leave the world more interesting for your being here.<\/em>” \u2014 Neil Gaiman<\/strong><\/p>\n

“A bird is safe in its nest \u2014 but that is not what its wings are made for.<\/em>” \u2014 Amit Ray<\/strong>, spiritual leader<\/p>\n

It 2008 I was lucky enough to get a two week artist residency in the eastern area of Cascades National Park in Washington. Eastern HQ was in a town called Stehekin, which cannot be reached by roads: either take the ferry from the town of Chelan at the southern end of Lake Chelan to Stehekin near the north end, or fly in by float plane. I didn’t get much time to explore Chelan, but did take a few snaps. Pretty cool to a city boy who is used to views limited by buildings.
