When I look at your images, especially the three color ones in this blog post, I feel like I am seeing a child's world thru a child's eyes. Your photographs not only shows me a child, but they make me feel as if I am a child, as if I am seeing thru their eyes. Maybe because you are experiencing a child as you are photographing, you are seeing the child as quite big. I don't ever remember thinking of myself as a child as small. Do you? Maybe it's natural for children to see themselves as big, and maybe that's the reason for moment of disorientation when you see the child again. You were experiencing that feeling of bigness . . . possibly? Wonderful images . . . love the work! Christy, this is something very interesting you’ve brought up.

I find that same sense of groundedness when looking at your images. They are immediate, intimate and right there.
