Rooted in Beauty Exhibit

Posted by Becky Jane

In Focus Artists is opening a new exhibit September 29 at Mayslake Peabody Estate. One of the images in the exhibit is “Indian Pipes”, a macro image of a tiny perennial found in woodlands. It lacks chlorophyll, and is a mycoheterotroph, obtaining nutrients from tree roots through a fungi connection. Often called the Ghost Plant, this small white plant is seldom seen, often missed, and can be covered by the leaf debris on the woodland floor.This image and others can be seen at the “Rooted in Beauty” Exhibit, September 29 through December 6, Mondays through Satrudays, 12pm to 3pm.

Sunrise June 7 2021 over Houghton Lake

Posted by Becky Jane

Sunrise on the lake. I’ll be visiting Dad every month this year, and the highlight of every morning is what the sun will do. Color, clouds, timing, brilliance, all can vary and I can’t predict it. In June, it occurs early and I can miss it. Today was not as dramatic, but I really liked it. There were the pastel areas surrounding the sunrise, cloud character, and sun color peeking through the fluffy clouds. The lake is slightly rippled so there is texture in the bottom of the images, and an overall smoothness in the sky as potential rain clouds come into visit us today.

Spring 2019 – a Quick Look

Posted by Becky Jane

I’ve been sick with bronchitis the last few weeks. As such, I’ve watched spring blossom from indoors, not getting many images. But I have gotten a few. I’m trying a new editing method. These images have a slightly different look than Spring flowers in past years.
