Curvy


Panoramic shot of the great room taken by Jake Gorst at the movie shoot yesterday. All those hard lines and angles suddenly transformed into soft curves. How cool is that? Very cool, is the answer. Very cool indeed.

On the bay


Finally, the rain stopped


The sun came out-and so did the bunny


the sun set


and set again


and again.
Sunsets on the bay. It never gets old.

In the yard: Saturday Morning in Spring


Dark green Hinoki cypress against a summer blue sky


Blood red buds on a Norwaay Spruce laden with new cones

Village Walk


Just a morning stroll-turn right at the purple magnolia


spot the bluejay in the conifer


snap the honking goose on the pond


straight on to the beach


and spy this guy in the yard back home

Squirrel Proof


As in proof of squirrel not squirrel deterrent. I have been waiting patiently since fall for the return of the vanishing squirrel, this breakfast time I got lucky and I see he/she did too.

Looking Forward


This one I'm going to save to remind me, in July (when it's 100F with 90% humidity), that this too shall pass.

Winter: Scenes from Home


Don't try to seduce us with you beautiful icicle frame, winter


or reward us with blue skies and early morning sunlight reflected on the treetops


The reality is extra foot or so of snow on the terrace


and a giant snow wall... with more forecast for the weekend.

Cold


Does this give you any idea how cold it is on Long Island? Given a sunset this pretty I would normally be dashing down to the beach to document the free show but when it's this cold, 22F (-6c) but feels like 7F (-14c), I'd rather shoot it from inside!

Ice Curtain


it's gorgeous outside but brutally cold, luckily I can shoot the sun reflected on these icicles through the west-facing dining room window. Click for full effect!

Long Shadows


The angle of the sun going down behind the hill opposite the house casts deep early afternoon shadows at this time of year.

Leaves


Maple leaves on a neighbor's lawn - just before the landscapers tidy up for the winter. Enjoy!
