It has taken me longer than I expected, but I finally finished narrowing my

2022 Favorite Photos

down to a dozen favorites. It took me a long time of removing, then adding back photographs, and finally removing again before I felt satisfied with this set of images. They feel somewhat mundane to me.

Of course the miraculous resides in the mundane, for the genius of the mundane is that it is never filled with any of itself. And because it is not, it has ample space to house something as miraculous as the miraculous.”
Craig D. Lounsbrough

But I find the mundane often wedded to the sacred and to wonder and joy.  These images represent the way I see beauty. And they represent some of my favorite nature subjects—flowers, trees, trumpeter swans, and the cycles of nature.

Miracles… seem to me to rest not so much upon… healing power coming suddenly near us from afar but upon our perceptions being made finer, so that, for a moment, our eyes can see and our ears can hear what is there around us always.”
Willa Cather, Death Comes for the Archbishop

Enjoy.

May you walk in beauty
