Seasons arrive and leave, perpetually overlapping. Like aging, and time, they sneak up on us. Sometimes wanting them and fashioning for them too soon. Other times, grieving their passing like a death.

Midwestern cycles of nature are severe, humble. The transition is a transformation. Their broadcast boldly awesome and a metaphor for inspired momentum.

Each image is an evolving transition of our world in seasonal moments.
