Reynoso Art: A Gift of Beauty
I’ll admit it, I am not a particularly talented gift giver- or giver of things. My leaning more towards a minimalistic bent might have something to do with that. (As a mother of five children and all still living at home, I view myself as a minimalist who is surrounded by entirely too many things, […]
Reynoso Art: Grand Central Station
This is one of my favorite images from Grand Central Station in New York City. I have found Grand Central Station to be a challenge to photograph well. Typically, you see images of the gorgeous roof inside the main terminal area, and I do have some of those, but I enjoyed finding an image that […]
Reynoso Art: Windswept
This is one of my favorite images from a local open space near my home. I find that it represents so much about here, the home of my childhood and now once again my home as an adult. With its beautiful skies, gently rolling hills, and the golden grass which sweeps over them as […]
The BIG Problem with Political Correctness
We seem to have a rather large problem with political correctness here in America. I mean, really, it’s gone completely overboard, become totally out of hand. It’s ridiculous, really. Political Correctness is for wimps. Or … is it? As I have followed recent events and national news I have become increasingly alarmed by the […]
Reynoso Art: Symphony in a Buckeye Flower
This single image of a Buckeye flower was hard-fought! As I was photographing in some vineyards, I noticed two large trees covered in spikes of flowers at the edge of vineyard near the creek. I asked one of the vineyard owners if he knew what they were, and he told me. Flowers pretty much […]
What’s So Hard About Being An Adult With Autism?
There’s a phrase I frequently repeat that goes like this: “There is no such thing as an Autistic adult.” I adopted this phrase after reading the hyperlinked blog post and often repeat it when I’m frustrated. In truth, I often find myself frustrated. Any who follow this blog will know that my husband is the primary […]
Reynoso Art: Lenticular Sunset
I still pinch myself when I view this image. It has a beautiful vineyard, the moon, a huge lenticular cloud backstopped by a beautiful blue sky, a golden hill with oak trees, and it was actually clear enough to see all the way to Mt. Diablo quite some ways away from my vantage point in […]
Reynoso Art: Field of Dreams at Sunrise
Even as I was creating this image, it felt like a Field of Dreams. No, it wasn’t because I very nearly stayed home in bed. (It’s true, I almost skipped heading out because I was quite tired and bleary-eyed when it was time to get up, at 5AM.) I had photographed this field once […]
Reynoso Art: Cabernet Vine
Every day I am out at the vineyards and the best light for my fine art images has left, I search out the field workers and see what I might learn and document. Today they were pruning dead canes and tying the longer Cabernet vine canes that were left after the winter pruning to the support wire. […]
Reynoso Art: Merlot at Sunrise
Photos are All Rights Reserved and may not be copied Merlot at sunrise is a beautiful thing! I just discovered that myself this morning. :) We have been getting drenched with much-needed rain the last couple of weeks so I’ve not been able to make it out to the vineyards. Between not wanting the car to […]
