On a fresh summer morning, the air is clean; the day is new and uncluttered. Your senses slowly awaken, easing you into your day with a soft, snowy white towel, crisp cool water, and the pure scents of soap and lotions. The start to each day should be treasured and greeted in all its naked glory.
Morning Glory began with a photo of a bathroom at a B&B I stayed at in Provincetown. It was not so spectacular that I had to have a picture of it, but it possessed a certain charm. I have tried to get into the habit of bringing my camera places and taking snapshots of things that strike me as having potential use in a future work. I usually have no specific idea if or how I will use these photos when I take them; there is just something that catches my eye.
