ron's mill photographs

I am borrowing a photograph from Ron's blog to show you one corner of the mill. Ron made several beautiful high dynamic range photographs, which you can see here. Yes, we are neighbors in the mill, though three floors apart.

a studio for little green marble

For the first time, I have a studio! It's tiny and windowless, but it is in an amazing old mill building. Stay tuned for the "makeover" and some pictures of the actual mill building in all its semi-ancient glory.

The first day we got into the space, Ron took down the muslin tab curtains that were covering the pipes. The landlord was going to remove the cabinets and countertop, but I asked to keep them. Today was painting day. I got one wall done.

snowshoeing

Ron and I went snowshoeing this morning. You might not think that snowshoeing in 10 degree weather would be fun, but with no wind it is perfect. We crossed the lake and then hiked on a trail in the woods. A cross country skier had been through before us. This is a trail we have snowshoed several times in the past two weeks.

a beautiful snow day






While the snow was falling I photographed some still lifes inside. The sky cleared and the temperature dropped by early afternoon, and I took a short walk outside with the small dog.
