“Combinations”
Laurence Brauer and Barbara Swift Brauer
“By bringing together our individual media photography for one, poetry for the other within a single frame, we express our common love for wildness. Sight and sound only two of the countless ways of interpreting the redemptive power of the natural world.”
Laurence & Barbara
Above San Geronimo
December dawn over Loma Alta and Blueberry Ridge
reaches west to where we stand expectant of grace
above the dark meadows simmering in shifting mist,
the watershed and salmon-simple streams.
First birdsong answers the emptying sky,
the air thins and warms. Names return
to winding streets as the fog lifts
over the town and the emboldened sun
flares in wild branches
spreading tall shadows at our feet.
Yes, we whisper to the morning. Yes.

WAYNE BRODE
Photographs
“Whenever I can, I try to make a photo look like a painting. I believe art
is everywhere, especially in nature. I have strong feelings for the
environment, animals and plants.”

Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.
