Musical accompaniment: Rhapsody by Sergei Rachmaninoff
I took a class some time ago on the history of photography and this beautiful shot by Edward Steichen was one of the featured pictures. I’d forgotten about the class and finding the materials today gave me a sensation similar to the one you get when you put on an old jacket and find $20 you left in the pocket last time you wore it.
Steichen made this autochrome picture in 1904. He called it Moonrise — Mamaroneck, New York.
It seems to capture the strange, mystical energy in the air tonight.

Ahh, beautiful music by a favorite composer to compliment such a lovely photograph. Relaxation, peace, tranquility all come to mind.

Thank you! For some reason, I was really uncertain about the music for this post. I’m happy it worked!

The photo appears to be a watercolor painting. It is impactful, nonetheless.

It does look like a watercolor. I labeled it autochrome but it was my own label. I may have made a mistake.
