My favorite imagine of soft has to be this mother and calf expressing affection in a soft, tender moment. These bottlenose dolphins live year around in the Kiawah River on the western end of Kiawah Island, SC by Capt Sams Spit. These pods are among the few in the world who strand-feed which is a learned behavior taught over the generations. Their favorite food is mullet; the dolphins work in groups to drive schools of mullet on the shore and then beach themselves to trap the fish and feed. Many pictures of this unique behavior is on the internet, to read more search “Kiawah Island, SC bottlenose dolphins”.
This exhibit shows light being reflected on multiple glass bottles creating a soft, calming effect. The delicate rose colors complimented with subtle blue tones radiate a sense of comfort and quietness. Josiah McElheny’s exhibit, “Endlessly Repeating Twentieth Century Modernism, 2007”, was featured in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, MA in 2016.
When thinking about possible images to define the word soft, the white beach sand on Kiawah Island, SC immediately came to mind. The texture of the sand in an erupting Loggerhead turtle nest is very soft and powdery as the eggs hatch and babies squirm their way to the surface. Once out the hatchlings head to the ocean and begin their journey to the gulf stream. Picture was taken on Kiawah Island, SC when volunteering for turtle patrol.
Imagine large, soft, fluffy snowflakes falling all around as everything is quickly covered with a blanket of snow. Sounds are muted and a sense of tranquility enveloped me while walking along snow paths in Maine. It was a beautiful evening and one of the few times the wind was calm and the temperature was above zero!
The snow reminded me of the beauty and mystery of creation, of the essential joy that is life. – Orhan Pamuk
