Retired history teacher, casual photographer and occasional writer of stuff. Tried to play banjo with very limited success.

Hi, welcome to this space, which I hope will provide a springboard for deeper thought, questioning and wonderings, that will lead to the Truth.

The Photography of David Summers

Photography and musings about life, work, everything and nothing.

What will you find here? Words. Art. Lovely bits of life. Stay awhile.

It's pretty random.

Finding the Light is dedicated to exploring the power of street photography as a mindful practice, and discovering the beauty of intentional, creative living.

Exploring the outdoor world through conservation, climate and adventure from my home in Northwest Iowa to the Arctic's Northwest Passage.

Yellow Flowers Everywhere is a collection of images and reflections capturing life’s quiet, fleeting moments to inspire presence and calm in the everyday.

I write romantic suspense and mysteries, but I call them all "Mysteries With Relationships." Thanks for joining me here, where I'll be including some of my "just for fun" writing endeavors and some of my travel adventures.

Welcome to “Hidden Iowa” a new effort my husband and I are launching. Based on love of our home state and a fondness for obscure history. The places may be in plain sight, but their stories and history make each site we will feature a “hidden” gem.

Dispatches from the intersection of Photography and Temporality.

Authentic words for everyone trying to figure out the best way to be human.

Once or twice per month I send out a letter with a handful of (my) photographs and share a bit of insight on the ‘why?’ or ‘how?’. As an enthusiastic photographer, anything goes. Maybe you'll learn something? Or perhaps it will spark some inspiration?

Blending storytelling, photography, and connections with a journalist’s eye and creative energy, sharing reflections, interviews, and insights that celebrate resilience and creativity.

Trying to bring words and images together in new and interesting ways. Short stories, Poems, Visual Poems. All words and images my own. A newsletter every week and photos to Notes daily.

Travel lightly and take only pictures.
