Danny and Margaretta Goodpasture, Centerville, TN 2020

This is a portrait of my parents in their yard in Centerville, TN. They have always been avid gardeners (their yard is well known in my home town). But during the isolation imposed by the pandemic, maintaining their environment took on deeper importance. It was also the main place that we visited together for over a year, as I strove to protect them from possible outside exposure while needing to maintain our connection.
