“Creek Shadow Collection”
Photo Exhibit by Jacob Folger
The Gallery at Seekers Church is featuring a new exhibit by Jacob Folger. Jacob, a member of Seekers Church with a strong commitment to caring for those who are homeless, has been capturing images in Sligo Creek, near his home in Takoma Park. A collection of his images from the creek are available in the gallery at Seekers Church.
Jacob reflects on his fascination with images in the creek:
Today, I follow the winding of whatever creek is nearby. It is a friendship that never ends. There is always something to do and lately, it has been the photographing of it and the shadows, the reflections that lay within… and true life that lays without. For instance, capturing a leaf floating by and pebbles and stones beneath while I photograph the shadows in between. It is a wonderful thing to take in. At this point, I am breathing excitement. Inspiration and passion has overtaken me.
