I recently began working with a creative agency in Columbia who reached out to me on my Instagram feed. And just like I read about on the internet, I got work out of Instagram. But that's an entirely different story. My second project was to photograph cotton - which meant that I'd be exploring rural South Carolina with the sole purpose of photographing something pretty. This was not shoveling poo.

I thought about the thousands of times I'd been stuck in a heap of metal hurling down an asphalt path at 60 mph and seen something I'd wanted to photograph when stopping wasn't an option. I thought about the horrible feeling that accompanied me when an image would race by completely out of reach like a tease. Blue balls. But here and strangely enough - for the first time ever - I could stop.

I can't think of a better outlet to share these images than on this photography blog. Which takes us to this "Found Photos" post that I foresee being a regular feature on the blog - with photographs I've stumbled across while shooting something else. I guess that's the beauty of not having a 10 p.m. first edition newspaper deadline.
