Turn! Turn! Turn!
This tree at Stage Fort Park brought the Pete Seeger song to mind. “To everything (turn, turn, turn) There is a season (turn, turn, turn) And a time to every purpose under heaven”
The changing state of the leaves on this tree also symbolizes how I feel about the changing season. Part of me is ready for fall….that part of the tree reaching to the sky and sun. Another part of me (the nice green leaves) wouldn’t mind a few more summer-like days.

A SUMMER SIEGE
A congregation of egrets has many collective names including skewer, siege, sedge, wedge, and congregation. I like the names siege and congregation and the above photo shows a siege of Great Egrets and Snowy Egrets preening after a day of fishing in Jones River Salt Marsh.

Mary Rhinelander solo art show at Gallery 53 on Rocky Neck through October 14th
Mary Rhinelander’s resonant show, Collective (un) Conscious, at Gallery 53 on Rocky Neck continues through October 14, 2018. The exhibition, a power packed installation of 12 x 12 mixed media panels, is as much about visual engagement and observation for the viewer as it’s chronicling an individual, accumulated and reflective life. There are plenty of unexpected juxtapostions, dark narratives, quirk and humor. Rhinelander has a sharp eye.
Good Morning Gloucester
