This weekend an insecure, emotionally stunted madman attempted to enforce his cruelty upon people in the community where I live. Although I’m trained in mental health, I can claim little understanding of why or how anybody could be so callous. But in my years of photographing birds, I’ve learned from them it’s possible, and imperative, to travel through existence gently and deliberately. This is my act of resistance against the brazen madness of the human world.
