Diptych Project #20
APPLE PICKING. October 2025. We bought our home in the dead of winter, and were pleasantly surprised when spring revealed two enormous apple trees. For years we have been saying that we will make something from them and this year we finally did.

THE PEOPLE. CUBA, FEBRUARY 2025. I don’t think that I can begin to understand the nuances of living in a place like Cuba. The difficulties and joys are on an entirely different spectrum. One I keep trying to understand but surely never will.
I was told once that Cubans have three faces; one for the tourists, one for the government and one for their families. I don’t know how much truth there is to this. But it has continued to linger in the back of my mind as I work through the images I took there.
How many of the smiles were joy, how many were a platitudes to keep the tourists happy. We tried hard to leave more then we took from Cuba and it’s people, but honestly I am not sure that we succeeded.
I will never forget the warmth and resilience I witnessed. And recognize that they may not have the choice to be anything but.
THE PLACE. CUBA, FEBRUARY 2025. A wild witness. To revolution after revolution. To trials and triumphs. A place of true magic, this I have absolutely felt.

Diptych Project #6
SARA PICKS UP SEASHELLS ON THE SEASHORE. I love the way the shapes of the shells mimic the shape of the surf boards. These two photos always felt like they belonged together. Shot on Portra400, soaked in sea water, developed in my kitchen.
SURF. Surf boards waiting on the beach. Their oblong shapes are repeated throughout the psychedelic colouring caused by intentional damage to the emulsion with seawater. This first attempt at film soup has been really fun. Portra 400.
