Back home, I was racing up and down the stairs trying to photograph the morning sun as it struck the burnt orange leaves of the oak tree.  As I turned around to walk back down the stairs, I noticed the silhouette on the wall. For a while, I photographed those shadows, the subtle shift of the shapes as the wind stirred the branches outside, and inside, how my motion stirred the butterflies on the mobile hanging from the ceiling.

In response to the previous post, I received some inquiries about availability of prints.  Glossy and metallic prints, 5×7 and 11×14, are available for online purchase via this link.  There you’ll find these and other images taken during my various hikes by the water and wherever the wind blows me.

The images are fairly unique and the prints are sized to facilitate matting and/or framing for easy display.  The printing is top quality.  I hope you enjoy, and have the opportunity to peruse other images on the site: http://photosbycynthia.smugmug.com/
