It has been an amazing fall in New York. Although these photos don’t give a sense of the phenomenal colors we’ve been having, certain structural aspects of the woods begin to show themselves as the leaves fall, creating opportunities for new compositions.

OK, I know I said that I’m on vacation, but people on the flickr seem to like this one, so I am officially making this my vacation post. So long!

Van Cortlandt Park, New York, 5x5 Platinotype

Two more photographs from the Bronx/Westchester border. In the 17th century, this area was part of a huge estate owned by Adriaen van der Donck called Colen Donck. It began just north of Manhattan and ran well into what is now Westchester county.

Saw Mill River Parkway, 5x5 Platinotype

Now that I have finally caught up with printing and shipping the prints from my recent print sale, I am able to continue with new work. These photographs are from a recent trip to Westchester. The Sawmill Parkway cuts through a gorgeous swatch of the lower Hudson Valley, creating very interesting scenes that would not normally be visible as the woods suddenly end at the road.
