Every year we grow Hostas and every fall I collect the fragile translucent leaves, wash them gently and dry them in my studio...Most years I photograph them once they have become contorted ephemeral sculptures ....architects of light. Last year I photographed them by moonlight in the icy cold water on our deck, rushing to get them in before ice and snow destroyed them. Harvested at the verge of organic re-absorption, their age and elegance recorded for my pleasure...maybe yours. |

| Once the leaves have lost all their moisture they are surprisingly durable, I have had some for years... I photograph the individual leaves and occasionally transform the images using Photoshop. |
