I captured this plein air painter in a field during the annual Plein Air Paint Out in Waitsfield, Vermont during the summer of 2016. It was a rainy day and she's conveniently erected an umbrella off her easel. I was shooting from the covered bridge on Bridge Street in the center of this village on scenic Route 100 in north central Vermont.
I took this with the Olympus E-M1.
La pittura è una professione da cieco: uno non dipinge ciò che vede, ma ciò che sente, ciò che dice a se stesso riguardo a ciò che ha visto. Pablo Picasso
Painting is a blind profession: one does not paint what he sees, but what he feels, what he tells himself about what he has seen. Pablo Picasso

When I was a child, my dad asked if I ever had colourful dreams. I felt it like a silly question but thought about it more and more. Now, I'm sure that I usually dream in Black and White but rarely had dreams in colour.
Today, I asked the same question from my daughter aged 6. Surprisingly, she said, "I always have pinky dreams, Daddy."
There are painters who paint the sun like a yellow spot, but there are others who, thanks to their art and intelligence, turn a yellow spot into the sun. (Pablo Picasso)
The scent of those lovely hyacinths was wafting into the air as I got down to shoot them. There is still lots to be thankful for :)
A digital creation based on one of my photos of a beautiful meadowsweet (Filipendula ulmaria) also known as meadow queen or lady of the meadow.
I love this plant, it is just so beautiful!
And it has given us much we can be grateful for:
The whole herb possesses a pleasant taste and flavour...and it is used to flavour wine, beer, and many kinds of vinegar. The flowers can be added to stewed fruit and jams, giving them a subtle almond flavour. Some foragers also use the flowers to flavour desserts such as panna cotta. It has many medicinal properties.
In 1838, Raffaele Piria obtained salicylic acid from the buds of meadowsweet. Thereafter in 1899, scientists at the firm Bayer used salicylic acid derived from meadowsweet to synthesise acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), which was named after the old botanical name for meadowsweet, Spiraea ulmaria. The name then became aspirin.
When in Port Townsend, we went to Ford Worden State Park. I saw this woman standing beside the road painting the scene in front of her. I asked if I could photograph her while working, and she agreed, and went right back to her canvas.
I'm behind on commenting as I've been offline for four days, but will do my best to catch up today and tomorrow :)
Vicka has come, the seer,
pale skin, crocheted scarf,
an other worldly calm
unexpectedly in their midst.
The cup of her hands pours
a blessing over them; she says
please kneel, listen to Gospoda,
oh, she weeps for peace
in an evil world, fast, pray
on Wednesday, Friday.
This waif, is she 16? –
so plain, her voice tremulous--
some forget to videotape,
some seem distressed
the Holy Mother
is less present
than usual and Vicka
will not take questions
this time about heaven
or life after life or the end,
which is sooner
than anyone knows:
long flight home,
nothing worthwhile to take
and someone, hopefully,
at the gate to meet them.
--Miguel deO

Symphony No. 5 in C minor of Ludwig van Beethoven
Symphony No. 5 was given an explicit name besides the numbering, though not by Beethoven himself. It became popular under "Schicksals-Sinfonie" (Fate Symphony), and the famous five bar theme was called the "Schicksals-Motiv" (Fate Motif).
Winter is a magical time of year, with a special and rare quietude in the air. If you’re lucky, you might even get to see a coat of snow painting the ground, trees and rooftops in a shimmering white. It also may be the most challenging season for artists
