A Year in Art

I  have three images in the exhibit titled "A Year in Art", currently showing at Heaven Art and Antiques Gallery in Asbury Park, New Jersey.  The exhibition runs through September 18th.

"And Spring arose on the garden fair,
Like the Spirit of Love felt everywhere;
And each flower and herb on Earth's dark breast
...rose from the dreams of its wintry rest."

Percy Bysshe Shelley

"Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you." ~ Nathaniel Hawthorne

Day's Dawning

Nothing excites this photographer's soul more than newly fallen snow.  Well, maybe fog, dark clouds, wind...I think you get the point.  There's nothing wrong with a beautiful sunny day for many images.  My personal favorites, however, are the photos that show those brief moments that will never be seen exactly like they are again.  Weather changes the landscape, moves it, interacts with it. 

So when I saw the snow falling yesterday, I knew I was going to take the scenic route to my office.  Within a few hours, the snow had melted.
