This month’s Oculus feature is titled “End of Winter on Mud Creek, Cutchogue, a black and white   photograph by Dan Torchio, a member of the shul’s Judaism and Art group. In this shot, “local inhabitants are looking toward the upcoming spring equinox and a clearing of the frost fog,” the photographer told The Shofar.  He captured the scene late on a February afternoon, at around 5:30. The specifics: Sony A7 mirrorless, FE lens 2.8/70mm 3200/second at f/3.2. The photographer pointed out that the avian population may have been thinking spring, yet a closer look reveals that a thin sheet of ice supports them on the water.
