Mott's Flat Bridge - Livingston Manor, NY
Old Gas Pump Catskill Mountains

I find the best therapy after a long week at work is to get up bright and early on a saturday and find something to photograph.... Today I went up into the Catskills. My objective a covered bridge I had seen while traveling up route 17. So I set out with the sunroof open and my Ipod playing a steady collection of folk music.... After all if you are going to be in the Catskills you should take Bob Dylan, Pete Seeger and Mark Rust along for the ride..... right? It was a perfect morning. There is nothing better than the feel of the Willowemoc Creek rushing around your bare feet and legs while you compose a photo of a 100 year old covered bridge.... Absolutely perfect.
Keep Makin' Art,

Wow! these are wonderful captures, and I agree it is the best kind of therapy out there (anything artistic):)
ReplyDeleteGreat photos and a great way to spend a day! I agree with Krista...the best therapy is an "artist date" with yourself!
ReplyDeleteHi Krista and Karen - I am preaching to the choir with you guys.... you both get how good art is for the soul / spirit / etc..

Gorgeous...! I love those covered bridges. Definitely therapy for the soul.
ReplyDeleteGreat art in great company - what more could any man want?
ReplyDeleteThank You Dave and Jo! I will count it as a successful morning on many fronts.

Dave - My post seemed much more elegant and poetic on the ride home... but as always a few hours later I lost the spark of what I wanted to say. I can't really capture in words how perfect the morning was and how beautiful the catskills are on a cool summer morning.

These are all wonderful, Carl. There are some great roads to get lost on down that way. Glad you enjoyed your morning!
