"SWEPT AWAY"
Seeking Newer Worlds...
Sailing on Puget Sound
Seattle, Washington
From Original 1981 Kodachrome
"Swept Away" captures a sailboat surrounded by a golden wash of highly reflected light as was found in the late afternoon 29 years ago on Puget Sound. The nineteenth century poet, Alfred Lord Tennyson wrote metaphorically of seeking newer worlds-- of "sailing beyond the sunset." It seems this vintage image from 1981 can serve to relive an all but forgotten romanticism in a contemporary setting- capturing a feeling of being caught up and being swept away by the drama of an isolated sailboat-- and to imagine other worlds and adventures that await.
