Color Me Greetums
©Greetums 2007, photos by TH Reeve
In search for the perfect colors, and lighting, for Greetums, Tom and Kat took a day trip to
Cape May, New Jersey; a bucolic Victorian seaside resort at the southern most tip of
New Jersey. Although Tom had spent many summers on the jersey shore, together they
have only had one vacation in the last 26 years. And that was two weeks in Cape May.
We think of Greetums as a place and as a place Kat thinks of the Shoppe as a little Victorian
store but on a very small scale. The colors, the light, the Victoria styles on such a small
scale. TomKat wants to build a little Victorian storefront in Hell's Kitchen, New York!

Between them they have over 350 images; Kat concentrated on the colors and lighting that
caught her eye, the architectural details. she looked for the examples that were perfect for
Greetums in my mind's eye. Tom made great photos, incuding the portrait of Kat which
I adore.
Lighting at the shore is pretty much perfect at all hours; bright but totally idyllic, it is god's light. The colors are deep and pastel, smoky and sun bleached. At this time of the year
everything is fresh and ready for the summer. TomKat are planning to go down again for the
historic Christmas celebration. We'll keep you posted.

The more I think about this the more I know in my heart that a little bit of Cape May in Hell's Kitchen New York would be perfect!
