"In every winter's heart
there is a quivering spring,
And behind the veil of each
night there is a smiling dawn."
~ Kahlil Gibran
~ 1883-1931
A winter's dusk paints itself around the
Springhouse at Trexler Memorial Park,
Allentown, Pennsylvania, one of my very
favorite places to be and to photograph.
I captured this high contrast monochrome shot
a few days after the historic January
Blizzard of 2016. In a winter shorn of snow until
the blizzard, the storm plonked 31 inches of snow
on Allentown in a 24 hour period.
This log cabin was part of
Springhouse, the summer home of General Harry C. Trexler (1854-1933), an
American industrialist who built a business empire in Allentown. The park is
his namesake.
