~the hidden life....

~ Photography concentrates one's eye on the superficial. For that reason it obscures the hidden life which glimmers through the outlines of things like a play of light and shade. One can't catch that even with the sharpest lens ~ Karl Heiner







~a beautiful rainy Monday....perfect for editing,creating new art and drinking a lot of tea... images of sisters, wanted something just a little different...hadn't had images made since they were little....xo

layers of illusion...

~ Photography, as we all know, is not real at all. It is an illusion of reality with which we create our own private world. Arnold Newman

graceful exit....

"There’s a trick to the 'graceful exit.'


It begins with the vision to recognize when a job,

a life stage,

or a relationship is over — and let it go.

It means leaving what’s over without denying its validity

or its past importance to our lives.

It involves a sense of future,

a belief that every exit line is an entry,

that we are moving up,

rather than out."

— Ellen Goodman
