See It Don't Just Say It
There’s something about the instant reach of YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook that has me hooked—this ability to capture and share the world exactly as it is. Ansel Adams, the great master of wilderness photography, put it best: “Only photographs can tell the truth.” And that truth is undeniable. Sure, storytelling invites embellishment. A good tale isn’t always tethered to strict facts, and I’m all for bending reality in service of a great narrative. But beauty and truth? They’re inseparable. The rolling waves, the mist hovering over a glassy pond, the dance of light across a moss-covered stone—these moments don’t need words. No tricks. No cinematic illusions. Just a camera, a scene, and time unfolding as it should. Point, shoot, and let nature speak.
