This photo is of an amazing place called Green Springs in Deltona, Florida which once had a hotel and bathers in the sulfur springs way back in the 1890's. This was a random shot before my 5k running race in the early morning. Device: Google Pixel 8 Phone.

The most important quality of a photograph/painting, as in all of art, is to evoke an emotional response. I prefer to capture surrealistic moments when I can, the play of light and colors and unusual situations as they unfold. As a passionate runner, being aware of my surroundings tends to produce some surprise scenes instead of forcing an image of time with my camera. Currently I have been concentrating on collaborations with other international poets who interpret my photos with their powerful words creating an art form that compliments each other.
