Description
My father-in-law is out of hospital and out of danger, but still very frail. Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and best wishes.
And the band had a successful first gig at the weekend, despite a number of glitches - but as we're playing original music, the audience didn't really notice. However, as we only managed one full practice with all band members before the gig, I think we did remarkably well...
Oh yes - the image... a celebration of life and new beginnings.

Thanks for all the great news. Glad to hear that your father-in-law is in the safe zone now. How great that your band had a good show. Love your scene work. The lighting is super. I especially like the way the fog is lifting in the background. Super work and super news. Have a good one.

the fact that I skipped a few images says nothing about the images: Only that, when I write such long comments, I can't do everything I've missed, at least not the first time around. (I hope I can get back for the others.) But I end tonight with this, because it's the natural conclusion to the last image. I again hope your father-in-law will heal fully and feel his old energies return. Re the image: Pieces like this are about---to some degree---differing layers of light & haze & atmospheric decay. Decay in the sense of how objects dissolve in atmosphere as one goes further back (something the Renaissance masters insisted artists start to learn; and which the Oriental masters had learned centuries earlier.) In photography, it would be an effort to capture pronounced foreground with increasingly more dissolved background: So you have layered grays and desaturated blues, etc, as each layer of ground & mountain goes back in space. With white clouds sweeping into the peak-lines. Layer over layer (with the final dissolution in the back-most mountains. All very well done.) Then, as photographers would also try to capture, you've bridged background & foreground with highly defined birds. Because, while they're in silhouette (mostly), their presence is commanding: They're the sharp presences that pull fore & background together. And they're in flight, which bodes well & healingly for your father-in-law. Again, the Oriental masters (from the Tang, Song & Yuan Dynasties) explored this kind of fog-covered landscape constantly; and they added remarkable detail via houses, walkers, streams, etc, right in the midst of the haze: You have something in common with them. Well, I regret to leave your gallery for now, but I hope to be back sooner than before. And it's a pleasure to be here once more and see the fineness of your mind & heart, as they assemble & 'paint' these beautiful scenes. And once more, I wish great healing to your father in law. You did 2 fine pieces for him. (I saw the others---and "Rite of Strings" made me smile alot because I studied "The Rite of Spring" years back. Even Stravinsky would approve!) Besides, I love to hear about your musical adventures. I've been there, and know what it's like...More highly sensitive work, Craig. I hope to be back soon!
