Summer 2023 Volume 1
The photographic feature is volume one of my summer. Summer is one of my favorite seasons, and as Shakespeare wrote, "Summer's lease hath all too short a date." It is a season of light, color, warmth, fishing, hiking, music, dancing, writing, reading, and photography. And yes, all too short a date.
David Gallipoli


the distant clearing
lambent light, forest beyond
and a mountain climb
David Gallipoli


Oh, the summer night / HAS A SMILE OF LIGHT / And she sits on a sapphire throne.”
― Barry Cornwall

Tornado of Light

Turneresque night sky
voluptuous layers merge
promise another
David Gallipoli

colors of summer
glow from the close of the day
sureness of flowers
David Gallipoli

Dance in the barn

Dance in the Grass

Watch the Dance

Who knows wither the clouds have fled?
In the unscarred heaven they leave no wake ,
And the eyes forget the tears they have shed,
The heart forgets its sorrow and ache...
James Rusell Lowell



a summer image
stirs the mind of past summers
youth feed the spirit
David Gallipoli
