About Orange Watercolor:
The sunset silhouettes of the islands have been like no other I’ve seen on my travels, knowing you are in borderland country (Minnesota/Canada) when you visit the trees bouncing off the evening sky. In my eyes each sunset is unique and unlike the previous day. Colors from sunsets change just like the seasons. Late summer sunsets have the deepest orange fading into twilight blue.
This view recharges my soul, I love sitting on my parent’s shoreline watching the sunsets and June didn’t disappoint. There’s no better way to reflect on a beautiful day than watching the sunset, knowing tomorrow is going to be just as amazing.
I enjoy my time spent with Mom especially after Dad passed away a few years back. It’s funny how life’s perspectives change after you lose a parent. I know that someday my time witnessing these beautiful sunsets on my parent’s shoreline will end but they will forever be locked inside my heart.
Robert Frost wrote this perfectly: Nothing Gold Can Stay.
Nature’s first green is gold, her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf’s a flower; But only so an hour. Then the leaf subsides to leaf So Eden Sank to grief, so dawn goes down today. Nothing gold can Stay.
Below are images I was blessed to capture and deciding which ones to make into my photozaics. Your comments are welcome if you have a favorite.
The accepted work of art is Breakpoint at Racepoint.
This image was taken in October 2022 in Massachusetts as I was blessed with another exhibition there and had the ability to explore this beautiful state. I will be going back this October again to explore more areas and even New Hampshire’s White Mountain National Forest.

Below is a quote that fit this work of art.
Dance with the waves, move with the sea. Let the rhythm of the water set your soul free. – Christy Ann Martine. I spend hours sitting on the sand becoming one with my surroundings listening to the sounds and watching the constant everchanging waves crashing the shore helping me recharge my soul. It’s nature’s symphony that warms my heart.

Harriet Island Eagle small commando photozaic
This statement by -Jamie Sams, Seneca/Choctaw, and David Carson, Choctaw really hits home on how I view a Bald Eagle’s presence in this world.
Eagle Medicine is the power of the Great Spirit, the connection to the Divine. It is the ability to live in the realm of spirit, and yet remain connected and balanced within the realm of Earth. Eagle soars and is quick to observe expansiveness within the overall pattern of life. From the heights of the clouds, Eagle is close to the heavens where the Great Spirit dwells.
I hope the next time you witness a Bald Eagle in the wilderness you think of how Choctaw people view this majestic creature!

Reflections on Wachusett’s Resvervoir Commando photozaic- Medium
Like water which can clearly mirror the sky and the trees only so long as its surface is undisturbed, the mind can only reflect the true image of the self when it is tranquil and wholly relaxed. – Indra Devi. This image was taken at Wachusett’s Reservoir and I love the Natick Native American term which means “near the Mountain”.
