My camera and I have been on the road this week, most recently photographing at the Storm King Arts Center (which, if you haven't seen it, is a magnificent, world-class, outdoor sculpture park that we're so lucky to have right here in Cornwall). The installations are so artfully conceived that the contrast of man-made with the natural environment often creates a third, "enhanced-natural" reality. I love this place.
Black Flag, 1976, Alexander Calder
As I wandered amidst the towering sculptures, I started photographing autumn as framed by these whimsical, sheet metal "windows."
I like this symmetrical stand of trees, framed by one of the ovals in Gui, a 1976 Calder sculpture.
Every autumn, when the Storm King Arts Center closes for the winter I feel a pang of guilt, knowing I haven't taken advantage of it as I might have in the previous year. Will take another shot at it in the Spring.
