Posted on February 5, 2022 by Steve Gingold

Some of you may remember my posting a similar image in the past.  In 2019 I was driving through Quabbin Park on a workday and just had my phone. I made an image that I liked but it wasn’t suitable … Continue reading →

01.05.2022 Spalted Wood as Art

Posted on January 5, 2022 by Steve Gingold
