Dear Everyone:

I couldn't quite believe my

eyes when I saw this scene.

A group of seagulls

floating effortlessly together

on a shimmering ocean.

I find the 2 shots both charming

and amusing.

Enjoy

Helen.

Fall mix cont'd. 2011

Fallmix#62011

Dear Everyone:

I continue to shoot Fall scenes

near my home.

I loved the yellow tree against

the green.

The photograph with the 2 benches

looks almost Zen-like.

I hope you enjoy these

images.

Dear Everyone:

Here is my most recent work.

A poem and a couple of photographs.

The poem references the riverbank

photograph.

Like a Painting

Leaves overhanging a riverbank

Fall in all it's glory

Crimson red, golden yellow,

fiery orange
The marsh grass and water

are misty grey-green
Do you prefer this image in

sharp focus or

blurred like an Impressionistic painting

My preference is for the painting

Gentle poetry, soft edges
The sharp image jars me

I prefer not to be jarred

but soothed

But I have a choice

Helen.

Dear Everyone:

As I was shooting this

image the homeowner

opened the front door to the home

and emerged. She graciously let

me shoot the image.

Happy Halloween.

Helen.
