Quilled Ornament

Tuesday Art

I took this photo over the past weekend at Winterthur. There were so many trees and so many decorations that it was almost too much. This tree stood out as the ornaments were all created by hand, by the staff, using period methods of "quilling". I thought the designs and curled paper were truly creations of art and I had to capture a few shots, of just those creations.

Fire in the Sky Over the Hills

While on the way to our Karate School, where I teach, it is my ritual to call my wife to check on the day. Last evening, she said, I might want to stop on the way to grab a photo or two and that the sky was great. She wasn't kidding. whether zoomed in or "big sky" - the photos were wonderful. This was zoomed in so I could see the wisps of fiery clouds at the very edge of the sunset.
