• Snags

  an ongoing project I have not talked about People I meet while I’m out on my photo-walks (combining some exercise with lots of visual fun) often ask me what I’m shooting. If I tell them “snags,” they often give me a blank look. I tell them Snags are dead trees still standing. Snags are important…
