July 2022 offered a lot of amazing images, so selecting a representative grouping has been a real challenge. What I want to get across is the power of so many stories weaving their way through my life. They are all distinct, and – in their own way – epic, each one an important element to understanding how the past month has played out. Then, sometimes, the narratives overlap and become indistinguishable one from the other.

So here they are, without commentary. More than likely August will – in turn – provide its own varied, beautiful, profound, and often unexpected collection of photographs.

Grateful for this good life, and this opportunity to share – DEREK
