hi there, i especially like [using the numbers from your website] photos #1, 3, 7 and 8. these images, to me at least, seem more communicative of a story or feeling, although i’m not sure if that’s what you’re after. in these photos, the certainty of her existence seems more established; yet she is also more obviously small, solitary, perhaps even unimportant [although its clear she's important to someone] and anonymous. i find all of these concepts fascinating, and well demonstrated here…but it’s certainly possible that i’m looking for these things, and finding them where i can. in any case, beautiful photos.

hey katie, thanks. it’s interesting to see what the external viewer see’s. i suppose my original idea what to make photographs of liz in the landscape and see where the photographs went. there were specific ideas (the bike) and then not so specific ideas (the boardwalk, standing on the rocks). perhaps the most unplanned ones are the most successful. thoughts?
