Title
Even When the Creek Rises
Description
On Oct. 10, 2024, an unusually powerful solar storm brought the aurora borealis far enough south that it was visible from Asheville. With much of the power still out, I was able to get pictures of the aurora over Foundy Street in Asheville's River Arts District, where my exhibition space was before the storm. This photo carries an eerie blend of emptiness and hope, evoking the dark, strange nights that followed the storm. But it reminds me that the darkness makes us recognize the light.
