Spread top of salmon with mustard mixture and season generously with pepper. Bake until salmon is cooked through and mustard browns, about 10 minutes. 
Meanwhile, heat remaining 1 tablespoon butter in heavy small skillet over medium heat. Add shallots and sauté 2 minutes. Add preserves and vinegar; stir until preserves melt and mixture is smooth. Bring to simmer. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. 
Spoon sauce over fish and serve.

Lent From A Different Perspective

Posted on by Bruce Barone in Uncategorized

Today is the first day of Lent.
Lent can be a time of spiritual transformation
as we release negative habits and thoughts.
I am aware that this time can be used to turn from the simple act
of giving up things to a more positive commitment
to take up the practice of high-level thinking.
   I am taking up the daily practice of joy, gratitude,
speaking positive words and committing myself
to daily sharing my photography with love.
 I am, simply, turning away
 from the simple act of giving things up to a more positive commitment to take up new things, or practices;

constant meditation
slowing down
giving one-pointed attention
putting the welfare of others first
deeper spiritual companionship
reading from the scriptures
and mystics of all religions
greater sharing of my gifts 

  
And you?
If you want distinctive nature, documentary or portrait photography–
photography with soul that inspires you to live a more artful and beautiful life,
please contact me.
