It’s a little gray outside today so I thought I’d play around with that shade as I photographed the tulips.

in the hallway

Early morning light falling upon a bundle of plastic flowers, left behind by friends at least a year ago. They are tucked out of the way in the hallway, ignored, until the light makes them shine.

When I saw these out of focus leaves — their form, shape, the melding of colors — I could not help but be reminded of the artwork of Tamara De Lempicka and her paintings, full of color, and the fall of light and shadows such that some things are revealed and the rest is left entirely to imagination.
As I was trying to learn more about the artist, I came across this website produced by family and friends. I especially enjoy the artwork page providing the opportunity to scroll through, by decades, her life story in words and images. Enjoy.

… as we wait for the next two storms. But yesterday there was a beautiful light. I tried photographing that same icicle that during a previous sunset had seemed filled with gold dust. But nothing is ever quite the same. Still beautiful though. 😉
I always return to the water

Trees reflected in the waters during that recent trip to Ireland. That’s one good thing about being a bit snowbound. Gives you lots of time to sit and sort through photos.
Of course that could be me trying to find the bright side as we brace for the next set of winter storms.
blue steps

At least that’s what these icicles reminded me of, people taking one step at a time.
