Mar 3 Keeping An Appointment

Alex Ferrone, Art Plus Conversation, North Fork

Talented fine art photographer Alex Ferrone captured my attention with this extraordinary photograph coupled with a quote from Thoreau. I knew we had to share it on Hummingbird. Thank you for the inspiration Alex.

“I frequently tramped eight or ten miles through the deepest snow to keep an appointment with a beech-tree, or a yellow birch, or an old acquaintance among the pines.”

Henry David Thoreau
