Tomato Babies 2 Imaginings from what is perceived: I really enjoy taking macros, especially when they show the life I’m trying to capture.

Strange Conversants Imaginings from what is perceived: I love imagining faces in ordinary things. These odd creatures seem to be having a heated discussion, perhaps about the bees building their nest in the trees behind them, perhaps about the politics of gardens.
