In Their Own Words

Bradley Foster: "The darker the sky, the more the stars can reveal themselves. Lightning storms, shadows, fog, smoke, moonlight, changes of seasons, and the ever changing landscape may also be a powerful reflection of our inner environment.

All images are single frame capture; no stacking, merging, or composites. Nor has anything (moon, clouds, additional light sources, shadows etc.) been added to the images in post-production.

As I look back over this body of work, one word comes to mind: Willingness. As I humbly began this journey into the unknown, my intent was pure: to be led by the light.

It is my intention that these images reflect that where there is light, there is hope. One image, for example, shows a threatening storm, yet on the under side of the rainbow, you see rain. Rather than lament the dread and grief that is associated with a storm, the rain is a reminder
that the storm brings a season of growth.

I hope these images help you process whatever darkness or struggles you may be trying to overcome, and may inspire you to take that next step on your own journey toward the light."
