Speaking of <i>twisted</i> (previous post), I noticed that leaves are the only parts of trees I've posted so far! So it's time for one of my weirder tree images. A few years ago in August, my family camped less than 100 yards from the Atlantic Ocean at Hunting Island State Park, a uniquely beautiful spot in the SC lowlands. These nearby trees were partially lit by camp lights at twilight. I still don't know the species, but their odd inter-twinings made me think of the intricacies of interpersonal relationships. <a href="http://www.winsomeworks.com/Travel/The-Carolinas/Hunting-Island-State-Park-SC/5759265_Dj4SdX#!i=356110268&k=Vr495Sx">Here</a> are more of my Hunting Island views. Twisted Trees & many of my images are available matted or framed, or on metal & acrylic on <a href="http://fineartamerica.com/featured/twisted-trees-at-twilight-anna-lisa-yoder.html">my FAA site</a>   –Anna Lisa

Two of my submissions to the juried <a href="http://www.phillipsmill.org/index.html">Phillips Mill Photographic Exhibition</a> this year were from a November '09 afternoon in our backyard when a few drooping leaves of a straggling hydrangea bush were back-lit by the last rays of sun. “Liminality: Dead Hydrangea macrophylla Leaf, Back-lit", above, is my favorite. The judges, however, liked my "Twisted Hydrangea macrophylla...” image below! The show, in New Hope, PA, will be open to the public from June 5 – June 26, 2011. Most works, including my own, will be for sale. Prints are always available on <a href="http://www.winsomeworks.com/">my SmugMug site</a> as well. –Anna Lisa <br />

In this season of changing colors and on my 2009 birthday (Oct. 1, but in the wee hours), I'm attempting to re-start what was my first photography blog. As soon as it's ready, my blog will be accessible from my galleries on SmugMug, at WinsomeWorks.com . Fall seems the right time to start over. New thoughts and ideas come to my mind this time of year as warmth leaves the soil but saturates the leaf hues.<br />
<br />
In my art, I'm interested in bringing folks ’round to the realization that there are at least as many ways of seeing as there are people in this world. Another thing– It’s a great and exciting world, yet there’s wondrous beauty being overlooked right in our own backyard. This back-lit leaf above fell about 20 ft. from my back door one fall, & I spent over an hour photographing the scene. Another autumn closeup below, “Autumn Maple Leaf Pair on Moody Rock” is an oldie from my good old Kodachrome 64 days that's been a favorite for many of my viewers. Hope you’ll enjoy the colors & viewpoints here, and the surprises of the backyard as well as around the planet! Sidebar links will take you to my entire gallery and I hope to post regularly. I'll eventually add some poetic posts or pages here. -–Anna Lisa Yoder<br />
