Moss Gardens of Cincinnati


I have been experimenting and photographing as well as planning and talking about a series of photographs called "Moss Gardens of Cincinnati" for a long time. I even thought it should be a book. This has been a great year for moss and I spent time this September locating scenes to photograph. These are six of the scenes I have captured so far this October. The photos were taken close to Sycamore Street about three blocks north of Collector's Art Group. I have been looking for more than just moss. I wanted scenes that reminded me of gardens. Mostly I have been thinking of the gardens I saw in Japan. When I get enough to do a book I will be sure to let you know.

Thank you

Ballard

    Poetic, Luscious, Meditative.

  2. At the risk of sounding like Josie, which isn't bad, they are gorgeous.
    The sublime in the everyday. That is what your work has unveiled for me most perfectly.
