Yesterday found Joan and I in our kayaks on the Connecticut River in Hinsdale, NH.\u00a0Joan was hunting\u00a0rare plants and I photographs.<\/p>\n

The weather was partly sunny and as long as the sun covered, not too hot. The thermometer in the car read\u00a092 o<\/sup>F as we headed home in the mid-afternoon.<\/p>\n

The abstracts are a collaboration.<\/p>\n

For the first four photographs, a long gone graffiti artist applied paint to a concrete bridge abutment. Weather and time did their job. I framed and “captured” the final work.<\/p>\n

My collaborator in\u00a0the final work was mother nature. She provided an iron oxide stain on a rock just at the waters edge.<\/p>\n

Joan’s survey site was near a number of large beds of cattails along the riverbank, \u00a0I had an enjoyable time trying to find interesting photographs\u00a0where plant emerges from water. (Being low to the water in a kayak enforces a certain viewpoint.)<\/p>\n

I also looked for photographs along other parts of the riverbank, but was only satisfied with one.<\/p>\n
