I had my head down lost in a book when I remembered to look up at the sky.

And as the sun set further down and I zoomed in with my camera the sky became like a dream of a landscape or a beach with water rolling onto shore.

When I made this little salad of cucumbers, microgreens and red peppers, I had no intention of photographing it but then the sunlight fell just right. What else could I do but find my camera. And then I ate it. 🙂

I expect it is the summer season’s lack of rain that produced this startling contrast of colors on the same branch.

When I first photographed the John La Farge mural Christ Woman at the Well inside Trinity Church in the City of Boston it was late afternoon and I had a much simpler point and shoot camera. The photograph turned out just fine. As I progress as a photographer though it has been fun to revisit works photographed in the past. These photos were taken with a more advanced camera and in the light of the early morning sun shining onto the mural.
