A delightful fact about the Berkshires: we have more than four seasons. We have at least six, maybe more, or five, depending on how you count. The photos in this book are mainly from the Berkshire’s most unusual season: the Freedoms and Tangles. Some call it ‘mud season,’ but it serves more than spring slush and muck – it even happens in reverse in the late Fall. What makes this season dual and possible: the spinning of the earth, tilted on its axis, flying through its elliptical orbit around the sun. That movement is so fast that during the moments it took you to read this sentence, the Earth will have rotated you about 3,000 feet, the equivalent of climbing to the top of Mt. Greylock. Along the mountain’s trails and elsewhere in the Berkshires, artist Gregory Scheckler’s new photographs reveal a visual story of time’s passage during the Season of Freedoms and Tangles.

What happens when you smash together long-exposure photos of broadcast news media and internet soft-core porn, with a touch of science fiction prose poetry? You get a witty series of fictions gathered around parallel universes among the lives of a poet, a journalist, a bartender, and an unemployed professor. Sometimes broadcast news feels gossipy and far-away unimportant, whereas the immediacy of our own internalized thoughts become the real news you can use. Please note: some text and images R-rated.

In this epoch of climate change, one way to interact directly with the world is to view the sky where you live. These photos are a part of a large set of sky pictures by Gregory Scheckler, from the Berkshires of Massachusetts. Summer humidity becomes pink or golden haze, dark shadows reflect the greenery of the mountains, complex layers reveal pockets of light and color. The imagery allows for reflective meditation on fundamental environmental issues and nature’s beauty.
