And Heaven's Not Far: Photographic Musing and My Father

This is a lake by where I live.  When the weather turns just a bit cooler, there is almost always fog early morning and on some days I am able to watch the sun burn through that fog.  On the day I made these images it would have been my father's 95th birthday.  I'd like to believe that along with the fog and light, I captured his beautiful spirit.

The landscape shifts, emerges and heaven's not far.

Happy birthday, Da.
