Hint of Gold
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. 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 will 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.
I’m sharing two works of the same photograph; one completed earlier in my art career and the other is my latest creation. I love to look back and see how I’ve grown as an artist. Here you see Fallen Birch in formal (matted and glassed) and commando (metal print matless) photozaics.
This is one of my last images I was able to photograph with my dad and it holds a special place in my heart I think of him and the day we spent on their lake taking in nature’s beauty.
CheeBah is admiring and finds Fallen Birch Tasty!!
