David’s mother, an amateur art historian, introduced him to the fine arts, but it was his sister — then a serious photographer — who gave him his first camera in high school. She later advised him to get a Pentax when he went to Africa with the Peace Corps. During his career in international development that followed, David used the Pentax and a series of Cannon PowerShots and iPhones to capture street scenes and portraits. By the early 2000\u2019s he was posting his images on social media. During this time, he also began creating and posting photo collages (@crashingphotos) and abstracts (@davidabstracted). More recently, David has shot with Olympus cameras focused on intimate landscape compositions, primarily in Virginia and eastern France. He joined NVPS in 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since his retirement in 2021, summers find David at his wife’s family home in eastern France composing intimate landscapes that often include the mist that travels over the region’s freshwater lakes, limestone cliffs, hilly farmlands and pine forests. Like other photographers, David uses mist to simplify his compositions and isolate subjects. He also uses it to intensify the atmosphere and create a mood. Sometimes mist itself is the subject of his photographs. In this gallery, David presents a selection of photos, some drawn from his 2025 portfolio, that use these techniques to show the many moods of mist in Eastern France<\/p>\n\n\n\n
