a return visit

A few images from a return visit to a field in Woburn, Massachusetts.
A very small field in an office park with an amazing variety of wildlife present.
I wasn’t set up to photograph the birds (or record their symphony of birdsong) though I kept catching flashes of bright orange, red, black and gold feathers.
As always, I scared a few rabbits deeper into the underbrush.
No hawks this time or foxes.
In the end …
I mostly focused on the landscape.

The view outside one of my windows, after the rains ended. The sun still shines. I know that I am a lucky person.

In fact, a small bundle of dried spring blossoms found on the ground.

By on the road, I mean walking around my Somerville neighborhood. Still chilly, but felt good to be out of the house and seeing what spring has to offer.

In New England, spring means flowers but it also means arts festivals galore. The one that I’ve become most connected with is Somerville Open Studios. This year’s official SOS weekend is May 3 + May 4 with studios open across the city and easily accessible by foot and trolley cars. Several April exhibits are also already up and running.
Maps of different exhibit locations for the main May weekend are available in every Somerville neighborhood. The mapstands, made by artist Hilary Scott, are quite distinctive and kept regularly stocked by volunteers.
The show is one of the largest of its kind in the U.S. You can read more about its unique history here. And you can learn more about participating artists via this link. Each year it is inspiring for me to see how involved the artists are, at every level, in making the show a success for everyone.

The May/June 2014 issue of Alive Now Magazine focuses on hospitality. I’m grateful to have one of my photos appear in the pages. It is a lovely, thought-provoking issue. Hospitality is something I struggle with. I know I’m not always as welcoming as I could be but I will endeavor to do better until the end of my days I hope. 😉 Learn more about Alive Now and the availability of this issue here.
