Yet another showing of my stunning photos of China

Yes, I said it, my photos are stunning – at least that’s what people have told me after looking at my photos of China. Come see for yourself, I have been invited to show my work in the 3rd Arts Show and Exhibition put on by the Lilburn Arts Alliance. It’s happening Saturday, March 23, 1-5 PM, at 107 Main Street, Lilburn. Come see my work, and that of 6 other artists, enjoy live music and free wine and appetizers too.

Happy New Year

It’s now the year of the Snake, according to the Chinese calendar (and those who know me know I like my calendars.) People born in the year of  the Snake tend to be financially prosperous – having a snake in the house is supposed to be a sign of financial success, but I won’t be getting any snakes anytime soon myself! Snakes are also people of great perception, rational, complex, and can be stingy too.

My brother is a Snake, but this description isn’t very apt. So what does this all mean? That you can never judge one by dates of birth, signs, years, or any external superstitions. Judging people is never a good idea anyway, as we never know what really motivates them to do and be what they are.

I record, rather than create, my personal photography. Some people appreciate this, some like more complex messages. For me, the beauty is in the simplicity.

I guess that’s why this image appeals to me, the bare branches of trees layered in mist. Simple, natural, beautiful.

 

PS, one source says only a monkey really knows how to handle a snake – good thing I’m a monkey :-)
