When I think of starting a new day a new year I always have this vision of looking out over a vast sea and watching the linear horizon being altered by the elements and time.

This is a small and a grand way to start the year looking out and observing the creation of moments .I had made up my mind to make Bastienne Schmidt's exhibition be the first one to see in the New Year. It was, but I saw it only yesterday and today it ends .There is the book Typography of Quiet which should be added to your photography library.
I am sure the gallery would be happy to assist you in viewing the images.

Bastienne is an artist who chose photography as  a component of her art.So as I walked through the gallery's space I felt my mood move from the joy of this living blue and white that she captured,to those moments that are private,wistful and sad.I saw the line blossom and transform itself and then return to start a new day, a new year.
