Winter and Equivalents

Here’s a video of some of the creative landscape work I’ve done over the years, during the winter. They are mostly close-ups of details and texture of tree bark, snow and ice with some abstraction. The term ‘Equivalents’ comes from an R.I.T. professor emeritus Richard Zakia as written in his book, Perception and Imaging. To paraphrase his book, ‘equivalents’, as termed by Alfred Stiglitz, is the ability of something to bring to mind something else. (Page 90, First Edition). In most of these photos, I see clouds, rivers, oceans, vast landscapes and the ethereal.

Music was excellently performed by The United States Air Force Band and The Singing Sergeants.
