Description
Two snowy egrets (Egretta thula) stand on the shoreline of an estuary near San Francisco Bay.
They are monogamous, with males and females pairing for life.
“Two are better than one… for if either of them falls, the one will lift up his companion.”
~ Ecclesiates 4:9-10

Artwork notes:
Embedded in the top right-hand corner is the Hebrew acronym for "B'ezras Hashem" [ב ס " ד] meaning "with God's help". It is a reminder to me as an artist and photographer of my dependence on the Almighty, the Originator of all creativity. This is a similar acknowledgement used by great artists like Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frideric Handel who signed their work with the Latin phrase, "Soli Deo gloria" which means, "Glory to God alone".
