After writing Path of Beauty I realized that I had more to say than I could express in my photography, and that another level of expression was available to me. Some of my writing coincides with experiences I had making specific images, working both in the field and in the digital darkroom. These essays are included as captions along with some images in various galleries.  In particular I wrote a series of short essays for many of the photographs in my After the Flood, Path of Destruction and Renewal portfolio that I recently made.
