WARREN CONNECTICUT – So now it’s really spring. Â Not much going on here from a photographic standpoint. Â Flowering trees seem to rob my work of its vitality. Â I’ve rented a Nikon and a few lenses as an experiment. Â I don’t care for the “jittery” quality of the out of focus portions of the image.
CORNWALL BRIDGE, CONNECTICUT – St. Bridget Church. A Catholic church. Late 19th Century gothic revival, The is very little information online, except that this congregation recently celebrated its 125th anniversary. Â I took this because of the unusual point of view – the image is taken from a highway bridge that runs above the church. Â The view is generally obscured by trees except for one spot where this shot is possible. Â Because of the limited choice in angles there was no way to eliminate the utility wires. Â May reaction at the time was “The wires are there. Â We’ll just make them part of the image.” Â I’m afraid that without a pole or some other indication that they are intentional, they look like a mistake.
NEW YORK, NEW YORK – 94th Street at night.
BROOKLYN, NEW YORK – Fort Green, near the Brooklyn Navy Yard.
NEW YORK, NEW YORK – Our my window, testing a new lens.
WARREN, CONNECTICUT – Forsythia, the earliest blooming shrub in this part of Connecticut. The earliest bloomer of all is the crocus which doesn’t do that well for us because chipmunks like them.
WARREN, CONNECTICUT – Winter is loosening its grip.
