To address a few questions I’ve been asked. I am always happy to answer questions so feel free to ask.
~ The “floating” strawberry was actually a hanging strawberry. I tide a white thread to the top of the berry, around the stem. Tide the other end around a knife and hang the berry into a clear, square vase. I placed the vase against a white poster and my camera on a tripod. I waited for the berry to stop swinging and I shot through the glass.
~ The many Lighthouse I have been visiting are open. Visitors are always welcome to walk around the grounds they are standing on. The East Point Lighthouse, which stands at the mouth of the Delaware River, has been abandoned. The Historical Society continues to raise funds which will allow them to restore the building. Many of the others are open, for inside tours, during the summer months and on the weekends during the winter. I do not care for heights and rarely venture up the 100s of open spiral stairs to the top.

Love the simplicity of this! Beautiful!
Thanks for explaining how you shot the strawberry. I was thinking you Photoshopped out a toothpick or something that was holding it up. :)
Oh my gosh- I can't believe we've known each other for 10 years! Crazy!
Love this little feather- it's like it was placed there just for you!
Nice shot! Love the sun and the DOF in this!
Ditto!
Sweet capture. The tones of the feather match the bokeh!
This is really beautiful! Excellent comp and focus! I love your blog, because your photos are beautiful examples of the kinds of photos I want to take.

I love the feather. Most people would have passed it by and not seen the photographic possibilities.
What an interesting find! Thanks for revealing your secret with the hanging strawberry.
