The prompt this week is to show something careful…  I’d certainly be careful about parking beyond this sign :)

Weekly Challenge: Boundaries …

Posted on October 2, 2015 by | Comments Off on Weekly Challenge: Boundaries …

Boundaries impose limits on us, whether they’re social constructs or real, physical objects. They’re there to stop us from doing or saying what we actually want to. But they also give structure to our actions and frame our movements. In photography, they help our eyes make sense of what we see and convey a sense of visual narrative. They constantly invite us to push against them.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My first photo of my interpretation of boundaries is this ‘do not enter’ sign on a usually closed gate in a private lake community in NJ…

My collage is from my visit to the Thomas Edison Laboratories in West Orange, New Jersey last December…

Outing To Clinton, New Jersey …

Posted on September 13, 2015 by | Comments Off on Outing To Clinton, New Jersey …

Clinton, New Jersey, a picturesque town set in Hunterdon County isn’t far from where I live and so daughter Deb and her dog Chappy and I set off to explore a bit.   Clinton is most recognized by the iconic picture of the red mill… it pops up on many NJ websites, calendars and is a favorite subject for artists and photographers.

Here we are, let’s explore…

Weekly Challenge: Today Was A Good Day …

Posted on August 22, 2015 by | Comments Off on Weekly Challenge: Today Was A Good Day …

The prompt: For this week’s photo challenge, select and share a series of photographs. You can piece together what you consider an ideal day, recount a memorable day, tell a (visual) story, or show us some of your favorite things.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A lot of thoughts came to mind about what would constitute a good day… I just didn’t know what to post about… my favorite places, favorite people, foods, vacations… I was torn.   And then this morning a perfect opportunity arose.  My daughter Deb and I go out for coffee every Saturday morning and today we took a mini 3 hour vacation to Lake Hopatcong, New Jersey.

Got our coffee and pastry at the Main Lake Market…

and then sat outside and enjoyed our respite.
