David Lee Myers We make photographs in many ways: usually persistent, thoughtful work; occasionally a quick and joyful catch. Seeing and appreciating beauty and subtlety nurtures our spirit amidst the challenges of life. Why photograph? To share comfort and joy in the world, to share committing to it, and caring for it. I've had a grand time looking at the world.
 Quiet contemplation allows my awareness to sink into the being of a place, to attend to the light, the form and detail. Light carries the energy, the liveliness. Form organizes our attention. Detail gives us ways to engage. At best, we can soften our perception, for the emergence of connections to our internal being and to the vast web of existence. If there's a secret here, it's in slow seeing. In slow feeling.
