These canvas tote bags featuring my nature photography are now available at http://bit.ly/2qBb3UD

I’ve been quite pleased with my own tote bag. While there are several options when ordering through the site, I tend toward the Basic Style with Black Cotton Strap. This one, featuring details from a Margaret Redmond stained glass window, will soon be available at the shop at Trinity Church in the City of Boston.

Also available online are several new pencil cases or pouches. I use mine as a wallet-like carryall. See a growing collection of pouches at http://bit.ly/2EQ3PjR

riverine poetry

It was a windy day when I recently walked along the Charles River. The river itself did not move very fast. The water was low and though it be mid-April, all around were the dead leaves of the previous seasons. Only a few daffodils brightened the shore. I decided to work with what I had and so I photographed the leaves in their watery haunt. Most of the images didn’t come out, at least to my liking, but this one seemed rather poetic to me.

A gentle snow falls so that white now covers these colors I saw yesterday at Mount Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge.

What is there to say? A magic moment in the Boston Public Garden watching this little creature dig about in the dirt for nuts.

large feathers drifting to ground

I glanced out the window and saw something drifting down from the sky. At first I thought them the biggest snow flakes I’d ever seen.But when I went to the window I saw that they were in fact feathers. I looked up and around, and there it was on top of a nearby utility pole, a hawk feeding on its kill.

As I tried to focus my camera around the oak tree branches … thank goodness, they are still bare … the hawk stopped feeding, spread its wings and flew away only to be immediately replaced by another hawk. A mating pair perhaps.

These were large birds but it was not a sunny day so perhaps their outstretched wings which seemed so large to me cast no shadows down below and that’s why all the people standing on the sidewalk below the pole never noticed nature at work above them.
