Franks Night post shared has some of my photos, read his well worded thoughts of night. Fell free to comment here or in his blog. Night can be full of magical beauty, with summers light nights we have here in the north. Winter sky with the beautiful star art. Nights capture the imagination, thoughts can circle in your mind during the night when you are supposed to sleep. Night is time for parties, time to meet friends or rest so you can survive the next day. It can be full of bliss or loneliness.
Special thanks to Ritva for providing the photos. Ritva is in Finland and I encourage readers to visit her blog Ritva Sillanmaki Photography. Please tell her I sent you and feel free to comment on her images here. She was also willing to try something different for me – collages. Any thoughts?

I like to walk on the beach. It is good for the mind, body, and soul – and refreshing on my feet.
Although now is a time of daylight, my thoughts are about night – that period of darkness ending with the arrival of light rising over the horizon.
Night is the time also called evening, nighttime, or even nocturne – the time between sunset and sunrise on the continuum of time. When does night start and…
I’m a student of life; I see beauty in nature, people and the world around me, small details and complete view. Without the ability to actualize an idea or concept, art would not exist. My work is a constant search for the best way to interpret the ideas that I have about myself and the world I live in. I do not limit myself to one medium, style, or concept.
Inspiration and ideas change. My knowledge changes and grows. Each piece I create is simultaneously an extension from the past, where I’ve come from and what I’ve learned, as well as a preview of the future, where I’m going.
I do not classify myself as just a photographer, as some might think from looking at my work. I am a sculptor, a painter, a photographer, an artist.
If a viewer stops for just a moment to view and reflect on a photograph, a photo collage or a painting I have created, then I have succeeded in my work.
