I hope you enjoyed the change of the seasons as much as I did. I think I'd like to focus another series on the four seasons, this time concentrating on the less glamorous phases of each season like dead, brown leaves in fall, dirty snow in winter, sweltering heat in summer. Because I don't just want to capture beauty with my camera, ultimately what I'm looking to capture is truth.
One man's never ending search for beauty and adventure, be it the Great Wall of China, a Broadway musical or fried peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

All Four Seasons in the Garden State
Before moving to New Jersey I spent nearly a decade living in the deserts of Arizona. I went to high school in Phoenix, college in Tucson and encountered very little seasonal diversity during those times. Arizona is a beautiful and unique place, but all the seasons feel a lot like summer. It rarely snows there and the botany mostly consists of cacti and imported palm trees. Before I left the desert, I had vague memories of the four seasons from a childhood spent in Oklahoma and Tennessee, but I was not prepared for the strength and vibrancy of each season. After moving to the garden state, I was completely captivated by the beauty and spectacle of the four seasons; I had to try and capture them on film (or SD card to be more accurate). I've posted links to most of these albums before, but now that the project is finished I felt they should all be together. Click the links below to watch my Flickr albums for each season.
