Reflected in the waters are the usual plants found by freshwater and also the long lines of neighboring buildings. No fish have I seen at this juncture yet nor turtles or frogs. The ducks seem to have a good time when they drop in, and there are many colorful dragonflies.

Four ducks making their way along Shannon Beach. I must say, if there is one animal that I have had much photographic-interaction with this year, it is the mallard duck. No matter where I find myself, in the mountains or in the heart of Boston, so long as I am near a body of water of any size, there will be a duck or two or four. The Make Way for Duckings reference is to this famous book.

… it was this photo of sunlit branches by the Charles River that was selected by the jurors. 😉 A framed print will be appearing in the Riverside Gallery’s 3rd Annual Juried exhibit, “African American Artists – Passion for a Lifetime – 2014”. I hope if you’re in the area you’ll drop by the opening reception on Sunday, October 26th, 3-5 PM. I’ve seen some of the other selected works and it is a beautiful and stunning mix of media and themes. The show will run through January 2015.
Other artists in this show include:
- Karen Eutemey – mixed media & watercolor images, to influence viewers’ way of looking at the world
