There's Something About Paths...

I love taking shots of paths. Although I've never done a formal study, I can look back at images I've captured over the years and see that my eye has been drawn to them for some time. I guess it's the promise they hold - the air of possibility - that makes them so intriguing. Or perhaps its my recessive wanderlust - because I hesitate to act on such impulses in my life decisions, could I be fascinated by visual constructs that signify the promise of "what if?"

Here are three shots taken at different times in my growth as a photographer. The first is a shot of a private garden that I took on a walkabout in London almost three and a half years ago. The second I took near a lake in up-state Wisconsin three years ago this fall. Finally, the third I took in Cody, Wyoming this past weekend. While my equipment has certainly improved over the years (the first two shots were taken with a small Nikon 2100; the third, with my Olympus e500), I hope my technique and execution have also improved over the years.
