A cloud watcher since earliest childhood, I experienced this metaphysical connection to Earth’s elements at that day’s colorful end on Andros Island in the Cycladic chain of Greek Islands where my father was born. I stood on the flat rooftop of my father’s birthplace in this mountain village photographing a mystical moment in time as my ancestors’ spirits seemed to sail across the sky on an evening voyage to welcome me back yet again on my visit from American after an 11 year absence.
FAVORITE PHOTO – A flotilla of clouds blaze pink…– because the layering of the elements of sky, airy clouds reflecting the last rays of the sun which had dipped beneath the horizon of the Aegean Sea reaching toward land mass of an obscured Andros Island, captured all the synchronicity of Earth’s elements and an eternal moment in memory and family connection.
This journey to Greece also marked my cross over to digital photography for the first time in 2007.
