Cadeau de Lumière Nº 001 · Snow Fell on Louisiana
January 2025. A freak snowstorm hit south Louisiana for the first time in my life.
I stood outside for hours with a Ziplock bag on the lens while the birds kept eating.
This is the rarest light I’ve ever been gifted — now it’s yours.

Cadeau de Lumière Nº 003 | The Sinks Rapids
Water that never stops talking.
Cold, clear, rushing over ancient stone like it’s late for the sea.

Two duck worlds, one pond.
Mallard in classic green, steady and sure.
Wood duck painted like someone spilled a sunset on him.
Same water, two different ways of wearing light.
Which one feels more like the duck you’d stop everything to watch?

Beach sunrise vs sunset.
Sunrise: world waking, cool sand, quiet gulls, light climbing from the sea.
Sunset: world resting, warm sand, loud gulls, light sinking into the sea.
Same horizon. Two different promises.
Which one calls you louder?

Cadeau de Lumière Nº 002 – Elk in Autumn Mist
Heavy frost on the grass.
Breath rising like smoke.
The bull steps out of the fog as if the mountain itself exhaled him.

Lone female cardinal in a snow-dusted crepe myrtle.
Red against white. Winter’s quiet rebel refusing to leave.
She owns the storm.
Does this cardinal look like she’s waiting out the snow, or daring it to try harder?

Smoky Mountain streams aren’t just pretty: they’re the arteries of the forest.
Cold, fast, oxygen-rich water feeds everything: trout, otters, insects, warblers, bears drinking at dusk.
Clear water = living mountains.
Protect the streams, protect the Smokies.

Squirrels: the forest’s quiet architects.
Squirrels plant forests by forgetting nuts, spread fungi, feed predators. Chaos with a purpose.
Little architects keeping the woods alive.
Respect the tail.
Who knew the chaos agents were actually on payroll?

Rain all day. Cold.
Feeders empty. Salvias bowed.
No cardinal flash, no bluebird scolding.
Counting days until the yard is loud with neighbors again.
Who’s missing their backyard crew right now?

Salvia towers and pulls the hummingbirds.
Coneflower stands broad and steady.
Cardinal flower burns at the water’s edge.
Each draws its own visitors to the same small space.

Four faces of autumn.
Maple ignites. Sweetgum burns in precise points. Oak holds its color deep and muted. Hickory glows through the slow surrender.
Each tree falls on its own terms.

Foothills Parkway, late summer.
Most trees still green, but a few show scattered color.
Does this hint of autumn belong to those trees, or does the surrounding green make the color seem more isolated?

First attempt at “birds with their buddies.”
Ducks on a Louisiana pond, scattered but never alone.
Each one keeping an eye on the others while pretending they’re not.
The challenge: catching every eye across the whole span.
Of these four sections, which duck seems most aware it’s being watched?

The elk grazes steadily in a field ringed by fall trees. Each breath hangs in the sharp morning air, visible and deliberate, marking the space between the animal and the cold.
Does the breath seem to belong to the elk, or does it belong to the morning itself?

Elk vanished from the Smokies. Then thirty-one returned in 2001.
Today over 200 roam valleys empty for a century.
Reintroduction doesn’t just restore numbers—it reshapes the land.
Is bringing back what was lost worth the decades it takes?

Does this stream seem to flow through the fog, or does the fog itself seem to flow with the stream?

Ghosts of the unquiet whispers through the columns, the staircases, the mirrors that never forget.
Some places don’t let go.

Strut concrete cathedrals, coo at crumbs, flash iridescent necks under neon.
We call them rats with wings.
They call the skyline home and never complain.
Respect the pigeon.
He’s been here since Rome.
