Green Lakes is a very popular park in the peak season and the population is dense. It takes years of experience to learn how to navigate the packed beach front and narrow trails when tourists flock to the aqua lakes. For that reason, I love the winter season at Green Lakes. Quiet, peaceful, serene...pure solitude. It’s an experience to be at this park in the winter months. Over the past few months, I have taken time to capture objects in isolation at Green Lakes. Surrounded by a blanket of snow, it wasn’t hard to find items that were stripped away from their surroundings. A dock ladder floats in a white world just as a leaning cedar tree does. However, as the season progresses and dark mornings turn to golden sunrises, the winter blanket is pulled back. The earth’s skin begins to show, and Green Lakes once again becomes rejuvenated for the season. This series ends with the coming of a new season, but it begins with the beauty of the solitude winter brings.
