At this time of year, before the sun goes down, the landscape turns a golden brown; a tapestry of beiges and creams mixed with whisps of cherry against a cornflower blue backdrop. Light reflects from the very tip of each and every stem; weighing on them, causing them to sway in the breeze; like little girls giggling under their blankets at bedtime. Or something like that. :)
About Me
Like Vermeer I've discovered the wonders of diffused light streaming through windows. I like standing next them because it's good for my complexion. And like Vermeer I enjoy candid and lifestyle images. I'm Athena. From the East Coast of New Zealand's North Island. Married to a Frenchman living in Texas, with three children, two birds and a partridge in a pear tree. I paint with my camera obscura. I also write.
