A Moment in Time
There are times when I walk into a room or climb over a hill and see something that takes my breath away. In that moment the world that lies in front of me speaks to something deep within me. In these moments I hope time will stop and I can live there forever. Once the unfortunate realization that I can not live here forever comes crashing down I reach for my camera or phone and take a photo.
At home, I load my photos onto my computer and look at these moments of perfection that I have captured. However, sometimes I am disappointed when I relize that the water is not as blue, the shadows were too strong and the moment of perfection I experienced can not be shared with my friends and family. In that moment time seems to stop again.
This is the reason that I became a photographer and everyday strive to capture that moment in time through my camera. Here are some of the moments that I have successfully captured those moments that allow me to experience what it means to live on this planet.

Annapolis, Maryland - 2010
I was assigned to capture an image of the American flag for the 4th of July. Every angle I looked at could not capture the grace of a flag moving in the wind. Finally, I laid on the ground and I found this.
Baltimore, Maryland - 2010
I was taking photos of fish in the aquarium. It took me over a seventy photos to find this little one.

There are only a few moments in life that allow you to truly understand what it means to share this planet with others.

Sometimes I don't know how extraordinary a moment in life is until I look back and find that I captured something I would have otherwise never experienced.

Cattle can seem so docile until you find two bulls "playing" around.
Annapolis, Maryland - 2011
Every night I would watch our spider (the same type as the one in Charlotte's Web) climb up from her hole and spin her web. This night I was luck enough to photograph my friend rolling up her evening meal.
