What is it about this picture? I just find it so incredibly soothing, mesmerizing, appealing. I think it’s the colors, especially that verdigris/patina thing going on in the foreground and the golden glow on the water in the left-distance.
It’s a photo posted recently by Heather Cox Richardson, historian and author of the daily, “Letters From an American,” a commentary/analysis of the times we are in, through an historian’s lens. Typically she posts a photo on the one day of the week she takes off, usually a Sunday, and it’s usually a shot of coastal Maine, where she lives with her photographer/lobster fisherman husband. This one, however, is by a guy named Peter Ralston (who takes amazing photos, google him). To me, it’s exquisite.
