Bedlam Farm Blog

Hi, many of you may know of writer and photographer Jon Katz. His wife, fiber artist Maria Wulf, recently opened a new art gallery, The Pig Barn Gallery, out of one of the barns on their Bedlam Farm. I attended the opening this past weekend and took some pictures, which I sent to Maria and Jon and have now made his blog. Check them out at http://www.bedlamfarm.com/blog/. ; Also, for more information on the Pig Barn Gallery check out Maria's page at www.fullmoonfiberart.com.

Mom in Flight

I shot this photo of an Osprey and her nest on the Cape a few weeks ago. I love the lines and how the curved wire mirrors the position of the mother osprey in flight. She has built a beautiful, large nest in not the safest of places, yet, she has commandeered a yellow caution tape to warn that it is others, not she, who needs to worry, if anyone dares mess with her babies. I love that nature exists here in harmony with our man-made structures, that there is such beauty in the interplay between the two -- this timeless dance between man and nature.
