Several of my photos are currently on display at the new Lebanon Art Gallery which is being operated by over 30 involved artists on the property of Sandra Samolis. Open from Noon to 6PM Fridays through Sundays, this exhibit features over 70 different works that include a broad variety of media -- from oils, acrylics, watercolors, to woodturning and welding. Works will be on display until July 27th with a new exhibit beginning August 8th.
For this show I decided to stay with a water theme. SO, in addition to seeing my popular "Boat Reflection," you will also see "Tide Water," "Rockland Harbor," and "Dusk at the Portland Headlight." Online is a great way to view these images, but nothing beats "seeing them in the flesh." Stop by 927 Trumbull Hwy (Rt. 87 just south of the Lebanon Green) to see for yourself.

[Update January 6, 2015: This post reflects the name of my original etsy.com shop, not the name I am currently using. However, it does have quite a bit to say about my work and how I approach it so I decided not to remove it.]
Welcome to my photography blog!
As I started to think about opening a shop on etsy.com to grow my photography beyond an existing local audience, I realized my first problem was coming up with a name for my etsy shop! I wanted it to reflect the basic characteristics of the strongest photographic work I have done so far.
Photography is sometimes called "painting with light." That was important to include.
Others have called much of my work serene and peaceful. That was important to include.
The lighthouse at Portland Headlight invigorates my soul and is my favorite place to photograph. That was important to include.
Also, lighthouses are the tradtional guide during a storm and my life has had its share of storms that photgraphy brings me out of. That was important to include.
But, most of all, for me, photography is almost a meditation, and it certainly is a spiritual path. That was important to include.
Yet how to incorporate all these qualities in a simple, easy to remember name? Beacon of Light was born! I also knew I had a photo that would add to the entire concept -- and so my etsy shop was ready to get off the ground!
Beacon of Light is now operating and you will be taken directly to it by clicking this link: http://www.etsy.com/shop/BeaconofLight
