The Visit

14Jan10

Every house has them, but old houses are especially gifted.  They are those little corners and angles that, at just the right time of day (or year, or lifetime) light up and play with you for just a minute or two.  Or they draw pictures that last for a second.  If you are quick enough you can usually figure out what is happening — a sunbeam reflecting from a nearby car, through the curtain and on to the wall.  But it’s still a magic moment, if you ask me…

Today the dining room lit up, for about 7 minutes.  Everywhere I turned I found patterns and images begging to become photographs.  The sun decided to stop by for a visit, just to remind me that spring is on the way.  But it also reminded me that winter is no excuse to be waiting for a reason to pick up the camera.

Here are my favorites, hours old.  Canon 5dMkII, Pentax 50mm/1.4 lens, processed in Adobe Lightroom.



Jamie Simon, Mike Patterson and Cliff Webb at the Rail last month. Great show — so sorry it took so long to get these posted. They will be back this coming Sunday night, I believe.
