{Mealt Falls : Isle of Skye : 2015} What do you think about when you visit historic places? When you walk through castles that royalty stepped foot in hundreds of years ago. When you stroll over bridges that sustained life in tiny towns in the 1700's. When you are viewing a waterfall on the coast of an island that took over 400 million years to form in it's current state. I ask this because I see people walk through areas I photograph; areas I sit around and enjoy, as well as capture. I see them walk up, snap a photo, and leave. I always wonder if in that split second they realize the magnitude of the images they have just taken. The image that could have taken hundreds if not millions of years to come about. If they think about what people so many years ago did and thought when these "places" were originally discovered or came to be. How different and somewhat more rewarding life is now. Easier, if you will. I just think about how much work, history, science, time it has taken for me to come to this point. To this moment where I am photographing something that is not only changing, but has changed the life and world around us several times over.
Many moons from now, when our time has come and gone, there will be others. And these photographs of these places will be different. Because that's how things are, they change.
