“Every generation leaves behind a legacy. What that legacy
will be is determined by the people of that generation.
What legacy do you want to leave behind?”
John Lewis
Over the past few months, as the Coronavirus pandemic has limited travel and other activities, early morning photography outings in Bucks County, Pennsylvania have continued to provide a break, a change of scenery, and a chance to clear my mind. The collection of photographs below is largely a continuation of my last post (Winter into Spring 2020). I was fortunate to catch several beautiful sunrises, as well as mornings when low-lying fog blanketed and partially camouflaged the familiar landscapes. Fog can make the familiar seem like something new. At times it adds a peaceful and serene feeling, while at other times it adds an element of mystery. On a few mornings, the way in which the fog altered a scene reminded me of an impressionist painting.
This post is dedicated with love to the memory of my mother-in-law, Dr. Paulette Rubin, who died a few weeks ago. There’s an old saying that you don’t just marry a person, but you marry into a family. I’ve been exceptionally lucky in this regard. Paulette brought love, support, fun and laughter to the lives of her family and friends. We will all truly miss her.
