I have this pair of earrings that sit on the windowsill. They are broken but their beauty is such that I cannot make myself throw them away. When I get into a cleaning mood, when I just want to create some space, I almost reach for them. But then the light … yes, always the light … will strike the pieces revealing a uniqueness that once tossed I will never find again. That is the thought that came to mind this morning as I found this image on my camera. I often have trouble labeling a photo but instantly the words “broken light” appeared in my head. And those two words brought to mind an inspiring blog, Broken Light: A Photography Collective. The site presents the powerful words and images of those living with, or affected, by mental illness. If you have not had a chance to view Broken Light, I highly recommend a visit. 😉

Just a few images from my constitutional walk through the Copley Square farmers market on Friday.

Yesterday I went for a walk by the river, and for the most part I kept stumbling upon beautiful abstraction.

I was photographing shells on black paper when I decided to see what would happen if I tore apart a nearby blossom and photographed the petals on the paper instead.

A friend wants to use some seashell photos in her artwork. I’ll be curious what she creates. Meanwhile I’m having a grand time revisiting my shell collection. This shell reminds me of the sky at sunset. What do you think? 😉

A friend just shared the extended trailer for the movie Cloud Atlas, based on the novel by David Mitchell. After only thirty seconds of viewing, I knew the trailer was all the excuse I needed to share some cloud photos. Mostly taken in the Greater Boston area. Enjoy!
As for that trailer, if you’d like to view for yourself, just click here. A bit long but darned inspiring. So, while my creative procrastination most recently was photographing a plum, I think today it will most certainly be an afternoon walk with my camera pointed at the sky. Hmmm, that’s probably why my family worries about me when I’m crossing the road. 😉
