Stories Behind the Images
Photography often begins with a place, a moment, or a simple curiosity. This section brings together travel stories, photography projects, local discoveries, and the experiences behind the images — the moments that inspired me to stop, observe, and press the shutter.
Some stories are about the places I visit, others about people, events, or the process of preserving photographs from the past. Together, they add context to the images and show what was happening beyond the frame.
Beautiful fall day at Goebbert’s Farm in Pingree Grove
Visited the farm with family a week ago. Early autumn weather was warm and pleasant. After a few years, we noticed many new additions. The owners clearly care deeply, making visitors feel comfortable and welcome.
