Recently I heard this music on our classical station and I immediately thought of his blog. He gets amazing photos of dragonflies, birds and other nature subjects that remind me to stop and look around me. Without knowing the title it reminded me of some of the chases Mike has likely had through the swampish park where he captures many of his photos. Turn up your volume as the first few moments begin very softly. Only 4 minutes but fun!
If you go to his WordPress blog you can scroll through his entries and I think you will see what I mean! I can no longer see a dragonfly and not think of Michael Q. Powell! Whether he is chasing another species of dragonfly, an Osprey, Great Blue Heron or an Eagle he depicts a world that few of us appreciate being as suburban bound as we usually are.
Start looking around you and enjoy!
Yikes, Molly. Somehow I missed this one when you first published it. I love the music a lot–it could easily become my signature song if I start taking videos along with my photos. Like my chases after wild creatures with my camera, the musical piece has slow moments, punctuated by periodic moments of frenetic fast-paced activity.
