Spiritual Imagery Through Photography

October 20, 2007

11:00 am - 3:00 pm

Niles Cabin

This event offers an opportunity for those who want to capture images found in natural settings that bring inspiration and awe to the viewer. This is a day to experiment, sample, share and discuss images rather than a formal class involving photographic techniques. We will explore the opportunities that the woods, fields, ponds, streams, and trails of the Rolling Ridge property provide to capture the extraordinary grandeur and simple elegance of the natural world.

Location: Meet at Niles cabin at 11:00 am. We will finish at 3:00 pm. Lunch is available for $7.00. The event will be led by amateur nature photograher Lisa Payne. Call Sheila Bach at 304/728-4820 or email snbach@earthlink.net for more information.

Quote of the Day

All things belonging to the earth will never change—the leaf, the blade, the flower, the wind that cries and sleeps and wakes again, the trees whose stiff whose arms clash and tremble in the dark . . . all things proceeding from the earth to seasons, all things that lapse and change and come again upon the earth—these things will always be the same, for they come up from the earth that never changes, they go back into the earth that lasts forever. Only the earth endures, but it endures forever . . . Under the pavements trembling like a pulse, under the buildings trembling like a cry, under the waste of time, under the hoof of the beast above the broken bones of cities, there will be something growing like a flower, something bursting from the earth again, forever deathless, faithful coming into life again like April.

~ from YOU CAN’T GO HOME AGAIN by Thomas Wolfe, quoted in An Almanac for the Soul by Marv and Nancy Hiles
