… 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.

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

and hanging from the roof …

if I could freeze gold dust I think this is what it must look like

One of my favorite exhibits at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston is the Endless Repeating Twentieth Century Modernism by Josiah McElheny. It was installed in 2007. Over the years, I’ve paused, stared, pondered, reflected before racing on to view whatever show or exhibit I was actually at the museum to see. Oh, how I have admired the beauty, but only recently have I taken the time to photograph what was before me and to learn more about the artist’s intent, as well as about his creative journey. As I learn more, mostly what I am fascinated by is how he uses glassmaking as a storytelling tool.

Via the following PBS link you can read more about McElheny and see a short video of him at work. http://www.pbs.org/art21/artists/josiah-mcelheny
