Top Three Shots of 2007: #1


I realize that 2008 is almost over and i never did post my #1 favorite image from 2007.

So, just to get it out there......this was taken in July (2007) during a week with our friends in Bermuda. Kayce and I were tooling around on our scooters on a beautiful Saturday morning and came across ernest s. painting the roof of this house in pembroke parish, also known as the 'north shore'. i struck up a nice dialog with ernest and learned a little about him - he drives a cab on the island when the work is available, and he paints roofs to fill in the gaps. i emailed him a copy of this image and a couple of others that turned out nicely....but haven't heard back.

I love the way the white of the roof and ernest's clothes blend in with the clouds, and the blue house with the sky. it's almost as if he's painting in the clouds.
