I am always intrigued by photographing in places I have never been to or visited. Finding areas, spots, and angles for creative work is exciting. This time, we were looking at Hanry S. Olcott Memorial Library in Wheaton, IL. I loved the red brick building entwined with ivy and the row of books holding knowledge and wisdom, and I also learned that Olcott is also a symbol of the aspiration and the commitment that brought it into being and that continues to sustain it as a place of wise inspiration, strength, and beauty.
So being there, with Lindsay and Peter, was as magical as the place we embarked on together.
