A Circle of Elders
This ongoing series of black and white photographs forms a circle of wise and generous elders from around the world. Each one offers support to all of us seeking, as John O'Donohue suggests, to "consider life primarily as an invitation to become who we are." They remind us that we do not live alone and that in the giving, something is always given back.

"Moments to take one's breath away. You have captured more than the visible"                       —Susan Bertrand
