The first image of the day was made minutes after I got up. The sun was coming up and the reflection of the door of our bedroom on the window pane caught my eye.
It was cold but beautiful in Ithaca when Kim dropped me off before she went to teach her Thursday drawing class. I had a couple of hours before I could get into the CAP Art Space to finish putting up the painting exhibit so, even though I was quite encumbered by a backpack and a handbag full of tools and other stuff, I decided to walk to the boat yard area and take some photographs. As I moved away from the traffic, the quiet space of plants and things swallowed me up with their usual, splendid revelations. Here is some of what I saw. Enjoy!

By the time I reached the gallery, I was in the mindset necessary to finish the demanding installation of over one-hundred unframed paintings on the larger walls. (I hope to post here soon some general pictures of the exhibit. The opening drew a good, appreciative crowd.)
