“The same stream of life that runs through my veins night and day runs through the world and dances in rhythmic measures. It is the same life that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth in numberless blades of grass and breaks into tumultuous waves of leaves and flowers.”

~ Rabindranath Tagore

“Well I’m a going back down
Maybe one more time,
Deep down home,
October road.”

I’m a bit obsessed with autumn, it’s my favorite season here in New England. For a peek at some fall color, come on over and visit me on my personal blog – Licht Years.

Have a great week, everyone!

Hi, I’m Susan and I’m a tea addict, welcome to my kitchen!  When invited to be a contributor here, I was both excited and nervous. I am fairly new to photography, having been given my first DSLR by my family just five years ago, upon retiring from teaching. I have a feeling they were looking for a way to keep me busy and out of their hair.
Their plan worked and photography quickly became my passion.

I really can’t say that I have a style or a specialty. At this point in my life, I enjoy exploring and playing with all aspects of photography. I especially love capturing little snippets of everyday life, whether in my home here in Northborough, Massachusetts, roaming around Boston, visiting the coast or wandering the trails on the many wildlife conservation areas near me. Black and White photography is a new love of mine, it is teaching me to pay closer attention to light, tones, contrast and mood. I currently shoot with a Nikon d5100 and a variety of different lenses.

Very happy to be here and I look forward to learning a lot from this wonderful team of photographers.
