I have now started to put my photos onto canvas. As you see with the changes to make the canvas art it really brings the photo to life.
This landmark estate at Wave Hill is a botanical garden house with a rich history. Famous residents include Theodor Roosevelt in his teen years and some claim that this Bronx estate played a part in his respect for preserving nature. Perhaps the birthplace of National Parks is pushing it but you should see the view from there.
Mark Twain leased the estate from 1901-1903 and set up a treehouse parlor in the branches of a chestnut on the lawn. Of Wave Hill winters he wrote "I believe we have the noblest roaring blasts here I have ever known on land; they sing their hoarse song through the big tree-tops with a splendid energy that thrills me and stirs me and uplifts me and makes me want to live always."
Bashford Dean who collected medieval European armor, built Armor Hall to house his remarkable collection. A selection of 197 choice pieces would eventually be moved to the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
A few famous thinkers were guest here, "Darwin's Bulldog" Thomas Henry Huxley tops that list. William Makepeace Thackeray and Herbert Spencer also stayed here.
Other famous residents of Wave Hill House have included the conductor Arturo Toscanini (1942-1945) who liked to play concerts on the lawn.
From 1950-1956 it was leased to the British government and chief members of the British Delegation to the United Nations lived here. When Queen Elizabeth visited she stayed here too.

We walked further down the beach to a spot where some rocks were sitting defiantly in the constant waves. I did have the tripod with me this time, and I tried to take a few pictures as the waves crashed and swirled in between the rocks along the shore.

The last few days have seen the sea turn from a millpond into all powerful and chaotic seas giving plenty of scope to make images. I find that the best way of capturing their awesome power is to shoot at an exposure of at least 1/500.
Pentax, a trip to Venice, film n.3
And this is how I discovered I have to expose longer my expired film.
The sea meets the coast of Bonaire with force and the plastic detritus can be seen clearly. Within the volcanic surface are thousands of tiny plastic beads. A dramatic coastline with a warning about the environment.
