Hartwell, Georgia
Driving home from work in Georgia I had the commute from heaven. Forty minutes of spectral detonations transformed the world. I had the great fortune of having a camera on the front seat. I stopped and used a guard rail on the dam as a tripod.
We have lots of expensive technology feeding us images of unending horror and mayhem. Every war and natural disaster is brought to us in high definition with surround sound. Take a break. A cheap camera and an attentive set of eyes will allow us to experience and abundance of beauty. Driving home from work can be a restorative mini-retreat that brings our soul to states of transcendence.
While crossing Hartwell Dam at last light the lake was as smooth as the Sargasso Sea and the luminous light was other worldly, perhaps a glimpse of heaven. Wish you had been there.
