It can be difficult to find beauty in urban environments. This series
speaks to the need to occasionally escape the sensory and
psychological confines of city life. These images are reflections
from pools of water that have gathered atop of concrete or
asphalt, which provides contrast between the abrasiveness of
industrialization and the tranquility of nature.
