Photographed August 11, 2023 at Big Rock Point State Park on Lake Michigan, this image renders a solitary, leafless tree as a fine line drawn across light. Water flickers like hammered silver; clouds slow the sky; stones settle into their quiet grammar. Reduced to horizon, shore, and one steadfast vertical, the composition makes stillness almost audible and time palpably granular.
By spring of 2025 the tree was gone—weather and water unspooled its tenure. This work becomes both portrait and elegy: a final, lucid season kept in monochrome. It asks the viewer to consider how coasts remember and how forms depart without ceremony, leaving a precise absence that glows.
