Walking 12.19.2016 4:25 PM
Walking at sunset while navigating the ice and snow. Treacherous footing forced me to keep my gaze down and take one step at a time, The split between the center path and the less walked right side of the path caught my attention. Perhaps a result of spending so much time with Barnett Newman's re-installed Stations of the Cross in the East Building of the National Gallery in D.C.
Walking 11.28.2016
Walking on November 28, 2016 in Amherst, MA with nine photographs of the sky taken in random intervals between of 3:21–3:51 PM . I kept noticing the geometry in my framing dicisions.
Incoming Grey 04.09.2016
The brightness of the earlier part of the day was darkened by the incoming clouds, though the sky was still highly luminous.
High Wind 03.29.2016
The wind gusting to the point of needing to lean into it, defined the day, from the fast moving clouds to the whitecaps moving upstream.
Snow Walk 02.08.2016
Sun Flames—Fortunes Rocks, ME 10.12.2015 (set of Nine)
Fortunes Rocks Celadon Haze 08.30.2015
Walking the beach at Fortunes Rocks, an eight image sequence from 08.30.2015 7:59–8:02am.
I have become entranced by the moment when the sun reflects off the surface of the incoming waves as well as the dissipation patterns embodying light in the turbulence of the crashed waves. Sky and water appear to merge into a single field. This is one of my favorite sequences from my annual summer trip to Maine. I may move it into Walks but for now it will live in the Notebook.
