Wild Abandon {Columbus Ohio Photographer}

I kind of have this pet peeve..... I don't like shrubs (unless in a formal garden) tightly pruned into squares & orbs. This is especially true of forsythia. It is so sad that most forsythia we see are cut into little boxes & their bloom isn't quite so spectacular this way. There is nothing more beautiful in spring than seeing an untamed forsythia shrub blooming for all it's worth - with wild abandon. They seem to be so exuberantly heralding spring. And so... I got to thinking about people - how so many try to be cookie cutters of someone else or who they thing they should be. And it reminds me of the saying - better to be a first rate version of yourself than a second rate copy of someone else! Happy Spring!

I was at Kingwood Center in Mansfield, Ohio last week. Everything was bursting forth and blooming - and the greenhouse is getting filled! I spotted this lovely strolling through the greenhouse. Fern love!

Golden Globes here I come!

I've been so busy these past weeks getting my 2012 Poetry of Fog desk calendars printed, packaged and ready to ship to California to be included in the 2012 GOLDEN GLOBE celebrity swag bags!! Today the 100 calendars are shipping and I can breathe a sigh of relief. I'm so over the moon to have my art in the hands of these celebrities, & to be a part of the Golden Globes! The foggy nature photographs were taken at Blendon Woods Metro Park, Franklin Park Conservatory and the Columbus Zoo - all in Columbus, Ohio. Several scenes were taken in the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lake Shore in northern Michigan. See the individual calendar months and my press release below!! Click HERE to visit my fine art shop. And click HERE to get to the calendar link. I'm so delighted to be a member of The Artisan Group who made this opportunity possible!
