Blaze

In Bryce Canyon, the hoodoos rise with a presence that feels older than memory. By day, their forms glow with warmth and color, but at night they become something quieter and more mysterious. When I returned after dark, the silence felt profound, the stone towers standing like ancient guardians beneath the slow arc of the stars. As light moved across the canyon walls and the path below, the scene revealed both strength and stillness. What stayed with me most was the balance of it all: warmth against shadow, earth beneath infinity, solitude held within wonder. In that moment, Bryce became less a landscape and more a place of reflection.

Blaze was selected for inclusion in the 2022 Louisville Art Association National Juried Photography Show in Louisville, Colorado.
