Watching the colors change

Last Fall, I had the opportunity to go to Whitworth to promote the YAV program. It was a great experience to be back on the campus for a few days, reconnect with professors and friends and hopefully begin the journey for a few people who really would be well fit for this program.

Luckily, being a Krista Foundation Colleague, I got to stay at The Hearth. This building is the home of our foundation and is one of the most peaceful places that I have ever had the opportunity to stay at. The leaves were falling and the beautiful landscape just called me to photography. It was an amazing night because I also was able to reconnect with friends in both Honduras and Peru and just left with a rejuvenated soul. Something that I really needed during my time of unemployment (Pre-Big Fish Games)

Too Dreary to be Enjoyed

My bike was on the fritz and I needed to get to the Krista Foundation's office. Along this walk I took lots of photographs, but this one really stood out as the point of the walk. It was pouring rain and was the middle of winter. It really stood out because it really signified the photo walk for me. It was a dreary winter day that really stood out as the my unemployed winter continued. The dreary corners of my life darkened but the light of my path went out into my future.

Since this photo walk, my life has continued, but I mostly just really love this photograph.
