"At the midpoint on the journey of life, I found myself in a dark forest, for the clear path was lost..." - Dante Alighieri, Inferno.

Sometimes in life, you need a guide to find a path in the dark, and for me, that guide is nature. We are aware of so much happening in the world at all times that it can become paralyzing to make decisions or see the beauty in your surroundings. In looking into my own well-being, it has become apparent that I am not the only one struggling to find direction and hope. Photography and insects have provided a path for me in the dark, so I hope they will do the same for others.
