A nice image to start my blog with.  I was visiting my cousin in Maine, and after a rain we took a walk and I saw this heart shaped puddle, reflecting the trees so nicely.  I also liked the light colored leaves confettied around and through it.

 

My pictures and stories use the skills of my brain, eyes and hands but also instinctive reactions of my heart and gut (no gut-shaped puddles that day though).  Many, but not all, of the things that catch my eye are in nature.  My one promise is that I don't lighten or darken or sharpen or play with colors - they are as I saw them.

 

I will post new pictures here now and again, occasionally with other thoughts.
