This soaring turkey vulture has a similar wingspan to an eagle. Big birds, ideally suited to their role of garbage collector to the forest. You may appear on his route if you ate the fungus in the previous photo.

Quotes I Like

"To make images is a way of ordering one's world, of exploring and understanding one's relationship to existence. . . . The images we make are often ahead of our understanding, but to say "yes" to a subject is also to have recognized, however dimly, a part of oneself; to live with that image, to accept its significance is perhaps to grow in understanding."

~ John Blakemore

"The virtue of the camera is not the power it has to transform the photographer into an artist, but the impulse it gives him to keep on looking -- and looking."

~ Brooks Atkinson

"To be an artist is to notice every beautiful and tragic thing, to cry freely, to collect experience and shape it into forms that others can share."

~ Jan Phillips

"Images unearthed are not merely random, they are metaphor. I am not creating something else. I am revealing who I am."

~ Catherine Moore

"Excellent day for putting Slinkies on an escalator."

~ Unknown

"We do not remember days, we remember moments."

~ Cesare Pavese

"Life is getting up an hour early to live an hour more."

~ Hal Borland

"The silence spoke loudly of silence,

and the rivers kept speaking,

of rivers, of boulders and air."

~ Jane Hirshfield

"Have you ever noticed how "What the hell" is always the right decision to make?"

~ Terry Johnson

"I really believe there are things nobody would see if I didn't photograph them."

~ Diane Arbus

"Photographers too often hear, "Your camera takes good pictures." Imagine telling an author, "Your computer writes such great books."

~ Sandra Juto

"Art is not a pastime but a priesthood."

~ Jean Cocteau

"Earth's crammed with Heaven,

And every common bush afire with God;

But only he who sees, takes off his shoes -

The rest sit 'round it and pluck blackberries."

~ Elizabeth Barrett Browning
