Abstract Landscapes

I am not drawn to landscapes as they appear.

What I notice becomes an emotional record, shaped as much by curiosity as certainty. And, depending on my mood—which can range anywhere between imagination and a thorough self put-down—the post-processing can leave me with an image that challenges my predictions.

Afterwards, I find myself struggling to recall what was passing through my mind, when I pressed the shutter, versus what was documented.

I need to slow the gaze for a deeper look.
