Today’s installment of #spooktober is in memory of S., a dear companion who is sadly gone, nearly 1.5 yrs now. She wasn’t actually black, but she indulged me in this photoshoot. #bnw

Photo: A black-appearing cat sits in a patch of light on the right, staring straight ahead. The remainder of the photo fades to black, with the exception of an illuminated window on the left, which throws light onto the subject.

A look into a recording session I ran 10 days ago to record some soloists on 3 new tunes of mine. This is an ethereal, atmospheric piece titled "The Stillness Between"
I've been friends with these players for years. nJoy!
