… 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 could hear her voice the whole time as I settled myself on the kitchen floor and peered beneath the oven. And I can hear her voice every time I look at this photo of what I captured in that moment, of what caught my attention in the morning sun. I hear my mother saying to my father, “Yes, the web is beautiful, but why can’t that child dust a bit more?”

In Copley Square, there is a fountain where I like to sit, eat my hot dog, and then, if I’m lucky, photograph leaves floating on the surface of the water. This week few leaves floated but there was plenty of trash, and the trash was blocking some sort of vent or drain and so the water was swirling erratically. And then a little kid poured in a bottle of bubbles, and somebody’s dog jumped in to chase the pigeons and I thought, quite frankly, “This sucks.” But then you know what happened as it always does? The sun came out … The trash did not disappear but there was a beauty revealed, too, I think. But that’s just my perspective.
it’s just water over the rocks but …

… somehow, the scenes always take my breath away. With moving water, in this case a freshwater spring running into the sea, there is no one right photo. It’s just capturing fluid moments as the sun shines down, reflecting, refracting and all those other wonderful things light does in and on the water.

A little yellow squash given as a gift by a friend, earlier in the autumn. Still catching sunlight in the kitchen.

I was quite focused this morning. Honest. I had my task list all prepared. Then the sun came out from behind her clouds, shining seductively warm light all around. What a problem to have on a Monday morning. And my response?
Well, but of course, I tossed aside pen and paper. I grabbed my camera and raced around the house to every window following that darn light until I settled upon the top most floor where from the ceiling hangs a butterfly mobile. A rainbow of winged creatures just waiting for the wind.
No windows were open (it was raining earlier), but perhaps from the wind I generated moving about so fast, the butterflies had begun to spin just a bit. And so I sat on the floor and photographed them in their habitat.
Not too long of a photoshoot. Just long enough to make one smile. Like I said … what a wonderful problem to have on a Monday morning.
