This was a sixth lone chair I spotted today at Scotney Castle. But, it doesn't count as part of my lone chair project, as this is a comfy chair, and all the others are not so comfy.

The Exploring Earth Science Teacher Workshop 2017 took place over August 2nd and 3rd. Participating teachers spent two days in Shenandoah National Park learning and participating in activities around the theme "Shenandoah Salamander: Climate Change Casualty or Survivor."
This program is supported by a generous donation from the Shenandoah National Park Association and the Shenandoah National Park Trust.
Three dhows, with their typical triangular lateen sails, pointed bows and square sterns, return to harbour after a night's fishing. A mist is rolling in over the horizon and they'd be anxious to get in before the mist strikes.

Frank Myers Boggs, known as Frank Boggs (1855 Springfield -Ohio - 1926 à Meudon Hauts-de-Seine) - Fisherman with gray weather (ca 1885) - exhibition “Monet and the Impressionists in Normandy. Masterpieces from the Peindre en Normandie Collection "- Palazzo Mazzetti (Asti)
“Monet e gli impressionisti in Normandia" La mostra ripercorre, a partire dai primi decenni dell’Ottocento, i momenti più importanti di questa corrente artistica.
L’impressionismo è un movimento pittorico nato a Parigi nella seconda metà dell’800. Nasce ufficialmente il 15 aprile 1874 in occasione della mostra tenuta nello studio del fotografo Nadar da un gruppo di artisti respinti dal Salon di Parigi, il tempio della pittura ufficiale. La mostra ha un esito disastroso e provoca feroci polemiche. Ispirandosi al titolo del dipinto Impression, soleil levant di Claude Monet, il critico d’arte Louis Leroy defisce ironicamente questi pittori impressionisti. Gli impressionisti lasciano gli atelier per lavorare all’aperto nelle campagne, nelle periferie, nelle piazze. Utilizzano cavalletti portatili e colori a olio in tubetti, fabbricati per la prima volta in questi anni. Lo scopo è cogliere l’impressione visiva della realtà; da qui la necessità di un’esecuzione rapida, senza disegno preliminare, senza ritocchi e sfumature. Il fondamento della tecnica impressionista è lo studio della luce e del colore; per conferire la massima luminosità ai dipinti gli impressionisti accostano direttamente sulla tela i colori puri; aboliscono l’uso del nero per realizzare le ombre, che vengono rese combinando diversi colori. Spesso gli impressionisti rappresentano il medesimo soggetto in diversi momenti del giorno per mostrare come la luce, nel suo continuo divenire, trasformi cose e colori.
"Monet and the Impressionists in Normandy" The exhibition traces the most important moments of this artistic movement starting from the first decades of the nineteenth century.
Impressionism is a pictorial movement born in Paris in the second half of the 19th century. It was officially born on April 15, 1874 on the occasion of the exhibition held in the studio of the photographer Nadar by a group of artists rejected by the Paris Salon, the temple of official painting. The exhibition has a disastrous outcome and causes fierce controversy. Inspired by the title of the painting Impression, soleil levant by Claude Monet, the art critic Louis Leroy ironically defines these impressionist painters. The Impressionists leave the ateliers to work outdoors in the countryside, in the suburbs, in the squares. They use portable easels and oil paints in tubes, manufactured for the first time in these years. The aim is to capture the visual impression of reality; hence the need for rapid execution, without preliminary drawing, without retouching and nuances. The foundation of the Impressionist technique is the study of light and color; to give maximum brightness to the paintings, the Impressionists put pure colors directly on the canvas; they abolish the use of black to create shadows, which are made by combining different colors. Often the Impressionists represent the same subject at different times of the day to show how light, in its continuous evolution, transforms things and colors.
This started as a color study but it went nowhere. I have been surrounded by palmetto for months and I have begun to ponder palmetto art or crafts; palmetto as a raw material. More to follow.

I could not choose which of these shots to use, so here are both of them! SOOC and then added to a PicMonkey Collage

Here's something a bit different. I don't usually do flower studies (apart from occasional wild flowers). However my wife had been given a bouquet and I was at a loose end, so here is a closeup of one of the flowers. I have no idea what it is but the colours are attractive.

"Lava Study I"
An incredible night in Oct '09 out on the lava field on the Big Island. Truly powerful experience. The scale isn't apparent here but the rock here is about 20' tall. Full sensory overload photographing here.
It's hard to get a feeling for what it was like there. Standing on the edge of the bench. Waves crashing up against the new land. Sounds of the lava and ocean. Smell of the air. And then wondering if the land that you're standing on is going to collapse in to the ocean at any point or the wind is going to change and blow the toxic plume toward us. Yikes!
2 shots for dynamic range....and a crapload of processing to get it decent. 30x45 metal print going in to aFeinberg Gallery Poipu!
Thanks for the c/c!
