Lucky to get to help prepare for an upcoming festival under the guidance of these goombahs. And I mean goombahs in the most affectionate sense of the term; and when I say “guidance” I should mention that I could hardly understand anything they were saying (my problem not theirs) but we sweat it out together, and I’m invited back tomorrow.
Not much time for photos while setting up, but we found a moment for a group snapshot on a quiet side street.
Thanks fellas!
As I stood before this amazing statue, my mind went into a playback loop trying to comprehend how it was I came to find myself here. One moment I was in a grocery store crowded with Saturday morning shoppers. Next moment I'm here in this desolate burial ground, completely alone in the presence of this figurine. The intermediate movements were already becoming vague. I simply reacted to a sudden urge to gather up the camera and come here. I wandered about for perhaps half an hour, shooting many photos but not feeling fulfilled. My hands were numbing from the cold wind. I headed back in the direction of my car which beckoned me with warmth and security. I stood there for a few moments, but instead of getting in I started walking away. This happens so often I've become accustomed to it although to relate it to others makes me sound like a crazy person. At times I actually feel I'm being led about, guided as to where to go. Sort of instinctual I suppose yet it often feels external, as if it's not of my own choosing. I equate the feeling to a water witch, a person driving for underground water with a dousing rod. Anyway, back in the moment, I felt a spiritual presence even before I saw this figurine. When it came into view I knew immediately this is why I had been brought here. I approached with a sense of reverence. This seemed to be way more than a simple figurine. Everything about it seemed so lifelike. The facial expression was filled with emotion, a weird combination of joy and anguish. It was haunting and so eerie yet comforting to be next to. The entire morning boiled down to this place and time. As usual, the lighting and conditions were perfect, like walking onto a sound stage that had been thoroughly prepared. The heavy Nikon hung uselessly at my waist. It was simply not needed; way past overkill. I pulled out the iPhone and captured not just the scene, but the emotion I felt and the overwhelming serenity in the face of the statue.
One of my most satisfied shot. My definition of satisfacation is almost identical to previsualization. If I met the scene, saw the result, and finally carried it out, that's a satisfied shot.
I arrived there when the sun was still above the horizon. Once I saw the lighthouse I saw the final image that's almost identical to the one posted here. I waited for the twilight, took some silhouettes, and kept analyzing the final image I saw. Since elements in the image were few, variables were few accordingly, but there were still some:
1. The lighthouse and the bank must be pure black, but the twilight must be bright enough to keep the sky saturated in red.
2. Lighthouse must start emitting its beam before or when variable 1 occurred.
3. Aperture must be small enough to make the rays from lighthouse start-shaped.
4. Shutter speed must be long enough to include light tracks of sailing passenger ships. This meant that aperture should be small enough and sky light should not be too bright.
The key was "WAIT": wait for the sky light, the beam of the lighthouse, and passing by passenger ships.
Accidents were inevitable, but they did good here:
1. The tracks of moving ships were positioned correctly, which composed the image instead of ruining it.
2. I waited for one arriving ship when exposing, but after exposing for half the required time another leaving ship was on the way, which added more tracks than expected.
That's it. The shot looks like a paint, and excitingly I'm the painter.

Can you believe it is almost April? The weather is getting warmer over here, bluebirds sit and watch me write on my patio, and my imaginary balloons carry me off to wonderland each day.

This painting is called GUIDANCE and at the time I painted it I was In Scotland where I staged my last exhibition in the United Kingdom last spring.I had no idea but during the pre vernissage there were no less than FIVE people interested in it...it is a shame I never make copies of my paintings!!!!!Anyway it went to a person who deserves a bit of guidance in her life and I am happy she was the one who bought it out of the five.

Another continuation of “One Day.” Feeling remorse for what he’s done, he heard a faint voice coming from the deadwoods. It was the voice of the wise, and its words echoed, guided the lost man.
The face on the tree is based on someone’s face who is truly special to me. I wanted the tree to have soul in it, not just some face I randomly make. Otherwise it will be less meaningful to me.

A thunderhead makes its way over Lake Superior and the Apostle Islands on a warm, peaceful, starry summer night. My heaven on earth moment this weekend for sure!
