Snail Trails

In the early spring of 2013, on one of my visits to my parents’ home
in Willow Glen, a central suburb of San Jose, Ca., I had noticed bright,
shiny, almost self illuminating abstract patterns running accross the 
pink cement of their winding front pathway leading to their front door.
I took some images, but realized, I would need to come back, the next
day, to shoot these reflections of snail trails earlier in the morning, to
get more vibrant reflections. I realized that some trails lit up, earlier
in the day, than others. Over a three day period, I made it a point to
photograph these trails at different times of the day, to make sure that
every interesting pattern, was photographed at a time of day, to make
sure it ‘ lit up ’, against the colored cement.  The results of this effort
make for a compelling body of ‘ urban abstract art ’.
