… to have the opportunity to photograph such beauty in so many forms.
I’ve noticed some activity at my local flower shop. Spring really is coming, isn’t it? Be well. 😉
leaves in the abstract

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. 😉
and then there was the hawk

To be honest, I was trying to photograph a rooftop icicle. I was playing around with the camera zoom when a distant shadow caught my attention. It was a hawk landing on top of a telephone pole with a pigeon in its grip.
There were people walking around below, and big vehicles scooping up the snow, but no one ever looked up. And so over the next two hours the hawk dined, unbothered, until nothing was left of its dinner.
