Weeds, Jackson, California, 2008

I made this image using a 28mm wideangle lens from a bridge over an old creek bed. The former creek had become a field of weeds, a fascinating carpet of varying textures. The weeds closest to me are viewed from the side, and as such are outlined in shadow. Meanwhile, the weeds further away are sun-struck, and gradually rise to a glowing green dome in the background. This image is a tactile one, inviting us to reach out and touch the velvety smooth leaves of vegetation.
