Some images feel like they choose you.

Veil of Wings was captured in a heartbeat—quite literally. Taken in Belmont County, Ohio in July 2025, this fine art print freezes a hummingbird mid-hover: the world’s smallest and fastest bird, cloaked in iridescent light, suspended between motion and stillness.

I had never intentionally photographed birds before this day. It wasn’t a planned pursuit, more of a quiet hope—camera in hand, watching and waiting. Then it happened. A whisper of motion. A flicker of shadow and shimmer. And somehow, my shutter met that exact fraction of a second.

I didn’t fully see it happen—not with my eyes anyway. But when I reviewed the image, I felt it: magic. A winged ghost etched in light. Fragile, powerful, fleeting.

After all my years photographing horses, landscapes, people, and movement, Veil of Wings remains one of the most unexpectedly powerful images I’ve made. It lingers. It humbles. It reminds me that beauty often arrives when we surrender control and simply witness.

This image is part of my Land & Light Collection, which explores the quiet spiritual resonance found in the natural world—moments of awe, rhythm, and reverence rendered through light.

A Note on Collectibility & Calendars

Because this image has moved so many—myself included—it may also appear in my first-ever calendar release for 2026, which will be a small, curated, limited run.
To be clear: the calendar will not be a fine art reproduction and does not impact the exclusivity of the signed, numbered edition of 25 prints. Collectors can rest assured that the original fine art editions remain scarce, valuable, and distinct.
