That is the theme of the May/June 2013 issue of Alive Now, a lovely, thought-provoking bimonthly publication. I am honored to have the above photo appearing in an issue addressing a topic that affects perhaps all people in different ways. On the magazine website, there is a section called Visual Psalmists where the photographers in each issue tell the story behind their images. The May/June stories may not be up yet, so for now I’ll just share that I took this photo on a marina in Miami years ago while waiting to meet up with friends. I sat on a bench, turned my head, and there it was in silhouette.

I only had to hop one fence, calm down one startled rabbit, and wade hip-deep through one muddy grove to reach the graveled path leading up to the power station. I had visited this area before and was curious what this season held for viewing. For the most part, I kept my camera aimed high hoping to catch sight of the hawk I’d seen before but then at some point I realized I should watch my footing on the icy rocks. I glanced down and this is what I saw.
In one small area ice sheets stretched. In some places water bubbled beneath the surface. Rocks and leaves were enveloped by sheer winter wraps. Later at home I played around a bit with the lighting. Revealed were bright stars in a dark sky and stained glass perfect for an outdoor cathedral.
One day later my hands are still cold from that impromptu icy shoot. But I think the numbness was worth it.

When I told my family in Virginia that for my birthday I chose to go walking along the seashore, many responded with horror. “Wasn’t it cold?” they asked. “Yes,” I said, “and windy too. So I had to keep my head down.” And this is what I saw.
