Discarded...when?


Couple of years ago we went to Saskatchewen to see the Sand Hills and there in a field was this abandoned car. I had a great time photographing this car and decided that I rarely work with a still life situation and now was the time because I always enjoy to challenge myself.

Hutterite.... Young Woman


Hutterites are a communal people, living on scattered bruderhöfe or colonies throughout the prairies in North America. This communal lifestyle finds its roots in the biblical teachings of Christ and the Apostles. Emerging as a distinct culture and religious group in the early 16th century, this non-resistant Anabaptist sect endured great persecution and death at the hands of the state and church in medieval Europe. However, the Hand of God remained on the shoulder of these people, and their descendents survived to battle on to this very day...


We have many colonies in our area and every Thursday in our city the Hutterites come to town.
A friend asked me if I had permission of the subject... the subject was conjured up in my mind. Any likeness to any hutterite is purely coincidental!
