“The ache for home lives in all of us. The safe place where
we can go as we are and not be questioned.”
Maya Angelou
Yardley, Pennsylvania is the place my family calls "home." What really makes it special are the many valuable connections that have formed over the years: friends, neighbors, teachers, coaches, acquaintances, etc. What follows are a collection of my new landscape photographs, all taken during December, 2016 and January, 2017. This is my way of saying a very big "thank you" to all of those in our local community who enrich our lives.
At a moment in history in which its easy to feel divided, I think of a verse from another Maya Angelou poem:
I note the obvious differences
between each sort and type
but we are more alike, my friends,
than we are unalike...
