An art of observation...

This photo was taken on the last day
of my exhibit at St Thomas Roasters
in Linglestown, Pennsylvania.

The lovely lady who graciously allowed me
to include her presence enhanced this capture.

"To me, photography is
an art of observation.
It's about finding something interesting
in an ordinary place...
I've found it has little to do
with the things you see
and everything to do
with the way you see them."
- Elliott Erwitt

"Both the grand and the intimate aspects of nature
 can be revealed in the expressive photograph.
 Both can stir enduring affirmations and discoveries,
 and can surely help the spectator
 in his search for identification
 with the vast world of natural beauty
 and the wonder surrounding him."

- Ansel Adams
