my city walk

It was long, but beautiful.

You’d almost think it was spring where I am, there are that many blossoms in the kitchen.

Reflected in the waters are the usual plants found by freshwater and also the long lines of neighboring buildings.  No fish have I seen at this juncture yet nor turtles or frogs.  The ducks seem to have a good time when they drop in, and there are many colorful dragonflies.

… there was just one

I’m afraid I scared off its partner. I’ll move slower next time.

Four ducks making their way along Shannon Beach.  I must say, if there is one animal that I have had much photographic-interaction with this year, it is the mallard duck. No matter where I find myself, in the mountains or in the heart of Boston, so long as I am near a body of water of any size, there will be a duck or two or four.  The Make Way for Duckings reference is to this famous book.

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/

Are there potatoes beneath the soil?  Time will tell … 😉

 

a warm corner

I was originally planning to title this post, “phoning home.”  I’ve not yet become comfortable taking photos with my phone but I really wanted to try capturing the fast falling light in this corner of the living room.  Most of the items lit are gifts from friends and family.  It was a grounding moment, reminding me once more that I am a very lucky person. 😉
