In a few days, my students will be back for the fall session of DragonWing Arts, and I'll be back sharing art projects with you all, but I thought in the meantime I'd show you a few summer photos, since photography is a big part of my summer creativity. Above, a great blue heron is playing peek-a-boo! Below, a luscious sunset over the lake, as viewed from our dock.
We are incredibly lucky to have a "camp" (that's the Adirondack name for a cabin or cottage or summer residence by a lake, or for some other recreation) on lovely little Loon Lake (one of several Loon Lakes in NY, but anyhow...), so any chance I get, I'm either in my kayak, or relaxing on the dock, or tromping through the woods. This summer my kayaking has brought me close to this great blue heron on a couple of occasions. I just sat quietly and watched him.
That thing you see hanging in the center of my kayak below? It's a waterproof box, for my camera, a spare battery, and a phone for emergencies. Of course, since I obviously took the picture, you probably have realized that my camera was not in the box.
I'm not sure what this interesting aquatic plant is!
Drip drop splish splash.
Morning fog
Lunch!!
I hope you've enjoyed a little of my summer joy!
