Full Stop Winter ...

 “Over the winter glaciers, I see the summer glow. And through the wind-piled snowdrift, the warm rosebuds below.”

          ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

                ~ 1803 ~ 1882

The stoplight at the intersection of Cedar Crest Boulevard & Broadway reflects in the creek at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania after a fresh mid-March snowfall has blanketed the landscape in this painterly, HDR image I captured in the waning days of winter.

                 

Twist On A Midsummer Night ...

"Art enables us to find ourselves
and lose ourselves at the
same time."

reflect in the creek on a midsummer
evening at Trexler Memorial Park,
Allentown, Pennsylvania.

Spanning ...

 

"Winter makes a bridge between one year and another
and, in this case, one century and the next."
                                                        ~ Andy Goldsworthy

A recent view of the historic Northampton Street Bridge, commonly called
The Free Bridge, looking toward Phillipsburg, New Jersey. The bridge
spans the Delaware River between Phillipsburg and Easton, Pennsylvania.
The Free Bridge was completed in 1896 and survived the massive flooding
of Hurricane Diane in 1955. It underwent a thorough restoration in 1990.
