Description
When you are many miles from home, it is disconcerting when, for the past half hour or so, your GPS has simply shown "road." Good thing my husband and I both have a sense of adventure, his acquired following me in my photo treks.
At the end of this particular West Virginia road on a chilly day in January, we discovered Watters Smith Memorial State Park, a historic state park with a 19th century pioneer homestead in a town called, appropriately, Lost Creek, WV. Despite taking us much further out of our way than planned, it was worth the trip. With two cameras and a bag of lenses, I was lost in my own little world as I scoped out the bleak yet beautiful winter landscape through my viewfinder, photographing the weathered wooden planks and newly repaired surfaces on the barns and other buildings.
Most of the park is only open in summer, but now the white winter sun played across the surface of the wood, challenging me to concentrate on shape and texture.
This image is a tetraptych, an arrangement of images in four parts, also called a quadriptych. I have created other tetraptychs from views of Central Park in NYC and angel statues in Rome that you can view in my New York City and Italy Collections.
