Skeletal remains of deer on forest floor with wild onions growing nearby in early spring, their juxtaposition a poignant reminder of the circle of life. American Chestnut Land Trust, Port Republic, Maryland.

Birth and death, twin-sister and twin-brother,
Night and day, on all things that draw breath,
Reign, while time keeps friends with one another
Birth and death.

Each brow-bound with flowers diverse of wreath,
Heaven they hail as father, earth as mother,
Faithful found above them and beneath.

Smiles may lighten tears, and tears may smother
Smiles, for all that joy or sorrow saith:
Joy nor sorrow knows not from each other
Birth and death.

Algernon Charles Swinburne, Birth and Death

Raised in Southern Maryland, Rebecca has an innate love of the rural environment, and her macro and landscape photography brings that emotion to life. Living within a stone's throw of the Chesapeake Bay has allowed Rebecca to add intimate views of Calvert County's natural resources to her portfolio, along with her vision of the impermanence of life, the beautiful rust which transforms nature and object alike.
