It's almost time to change the art in one of the galleries that show my work, so I have readied three new pieces. The first one is from an early morning photo I shot from the deck of a cruise ship this past September. After a somewhat stormy night between the Azores and the Canaries, I went outside to view the dawn. The rolling waves and the light breaking in the distance served to say "new day--new adventures". I simply call this one Mid-Atlantic Dawn.
The second is from a collection of photos of street musicians. Whenever I spot one and have my camera handy, I shoot one for my files. In cities everywhere you find them practicing their skills in the hopes that one of their tunes will entrance the passerby and lead to cash in the basket. Is it the hope of being discovered or just the love of making music? I named it Street Musician.
The third is also from the September cruise. As we pulled into the harbor at one of our island stops, I immediately noticed the number of people taking advantage of the calm waters and nice weather for recreation. There were so many, that I instantly thought of traffic congestion. Obviously, that is why I named it Harbor Traffic.
