This morning I was pleased to learn that my photo, “Winter Fence,” was accepted into the prestigious Elkhart Juried Regional. It will be on display at the Midwest Museum of American Art in Elkhart, October 11 – December 8 2013. I took this photograph last winter, next to the Goshen Dam Pond, and have ever since claimed it as my favorite landscape photo. I love its simplicity and elegance (if I do say so myself).
It was a quiet and foggy early morning after a heavy snow fall. The snow was thick but gentle over the concrete steps, giving them the look of rippling sand dunes. The Dam is normally a busy place, and I feel fortunate to have been able to capture this winter scene while the snow remained undisturbed.
