Dreaming

When daylight savings time ends, and the sun sets earlier and earlier by the day, I find the city barren – peopleless, feelingless, empty. With no color left in the sky, the spaces that would surrender to the abyss of darkness are filled with the life of light. In this image, I find myself dreaming of a better, more hopeful vision of this dark world. On this particular night, I walked out into the snowy night of the small town of Ellsworth, Maine, where I happened to be visiting my extended family. Although the streets were utterly lifeless, there was a liveliness to the lights. With snow coming down and the “hopeful” sign, I saw this shot sitting right before me.

Creativity comes from the purest, most raw form of human thoughts and emotions. For me, creativity means expressing my true self with no bounds or limits. Creativity means trying new things and exploring my talents to the fullest. Creativity means being unapologetically myself.
