  1. Are you 'shadowing' me? Your shadows are so beautifully fragile looking. Also, I now realise you don't live too many floors up!I'd always pictured you way up in the sky!

  4. It must be so lovely to see the trees coming to life in the spring. Who would think of honking in such a pretty setting?

  6. Great shot from so high up. Those gingko tree shadows seem to be pointing straight down. They almost look like reflections.

About Me

My photo
JANUS - looking backwards and forwards is a Janus trait - for me a way to record the "in between thought", whether in retrospect, or as a notion for the future. I make original prints, currently etchings. I sometimes write and take photographs. I am inspired by what I see and read. Although postings are chronologically recorded by date and time in this protocol, the images exhibited, often seen in different stages of production, are from another time. So, with each new posting, earlier postings can undergo revision or amplification as will be noted, or requested. The addition of a SNAPSHOTS Blog and a VIRGINIA WOOLF Blog are included because my different interests tend to influence what I do as an artist. There will be a Family Blog, too, for the same reason.
