My good friend Jeany Rhodes is hosting a troupe of absolutely fabulous Lusitano horses at her Rhodes River Ranch in Arlington, WA.
They will be at the Ranch from Sept. 14-22, 2013, with dinner and brunch performances on both weekends. There will be aires above the ground, capriole, courbette, levade, pesade and other spectacular maneuvers. There will also be quadrille – the synchronized swimming of the horse world – along with some dancing and piano playing with the horses… As a VIP, you could even be on the arena floor – up close and super personal! All great fun and not to be missed!
The ART of Photography
“In the last issue, we introduced you to Art Wolfe, a renowned photographer who talked about his connection with nature and everything it hosts. In this second installment of an insightful two-part series, Art Wolfe talks about his most popular and gorgeous set of photographs — the art of camouflage in nature, his eye for the human canvas and as a bonus, his 10 commandments for aspiring photographers. Pick up the new issue to read about his genius.”

Johsel Namkung’s work was revelatory to me. His work was art and the rhythms of nature permeated it in sophisticated simplicity as only a master can achieve.
