SUMMARY:Bullough’s Pond Beauty: From Cloudscapes to Closeups

 e incredible photos there.  You are invited to an opening reception on Tu
 esday\, September 17th in the 2nd Floor Gallery at City Hall from 5:30 to 
 7:30 pm.  Ellen Foust will be answering questions not only about her phot

 ond Beauty: From Cloudscapes to Closeups is a glimpse into my project to e
 njoy the beauty of Newton’s Bullough’s Pond in all seasons\, weather\,
  and times of day. Since 2018\, I have been watching the sky in my Newton 
 Center yard\, and whenever I see interesting clouds\, I drive the mile to 
 Bullough’s Pond to photograph what I see in the sky above and in the wat
 er reflected below.\n\nChanneling my inner Monet\, I never tire of using s
 imilar compositions\, because the light\, weather\, and color are ever cha
 nging\, making the scene look different from minute to minute\, day to day
 \, and season to season.\n\nCreating these photographs with my iPhone is a
  relaxing meditation that has kept me grounded and centered for six years 
 through the pandemic and multiple personal challenges. When I am creating 
 photographs of the pond\, I am returned to joy.\n\nAbout the artist:\n\nEl
 len Foust is an artist\, fine art photographer\, and photo educator who li
 ves in Newton with her husband\, Jeff. When she is not at Bullough's Pond\
 , she can be found teaching iPhone photography at the Brandeis Osher Lifel
 ong Learning Institute (BOLLI) or walking around Newton with her head poin
 ted at the clouds.\n\n
