Memories of Summer




Memories of Summer   (Originally uploaded by randubnick)

Last night it snowed several inches, and by morning we were having freezing rain and then rain over snow.  This morning's shoveling of very heavy water-logged snow took place in the rain, and it has been dark and gloomy all day.  Winter weather can be beautiful, but not the dismal gray slush that we had today.  So instead of posting a winter image, I am posting a summer memory! This image began with a photo of roses that I took in July during a walk at the Cummings Center Pond.  Tonight I used my Painter program to transform the photo into a digital woodcut, maximizing the bright colors as much as possible.  Then I cropped the image to get this composition.
