A tree covered
in snow-fur.

This is another composite.
I love how the light and position
of each pic in the composite works.
I used three separate shots for this one.

temporary accessories
to adorn man's

kill the light.

The almost ghostly effect of this picture
is a composite of an out-of-focus shot
with an in-focus shot.

Reminds me of a firing neuron.

Red Rushing Clouds

Warm orange clouds
rush above
the single tree.

2015

A strange winter allows for stark differences
between the mountains, the park and the sky.
The mixing of color and light
invites the eye to travel
the distant between foreground and background.

Washing Frozen Foam

The ice freezes time,
a bubbling ocean wave
washing ashore.

This is my first composite,
blending a focused
with an unfocused shot
to great an unnatural glow.

After a tough day,
sweet Jupiter-Juice
sleeps soundly
with daughter India

Built up snow makes
for interesting shapes and perspectives.
fills the form
of this frosted leaf.

Mountain Blazing

Fiery clouds rise
from behind the
mountain.

2015

 

What more can I say?
A peaceful sunrise
is a beautiful thing.

Tree Touches Cloud

It's as if the tree branches
reach out with tiny
ball-tipped fingers
to touch the clouds.

2015

Look close.
The tree branches are growing together,
making a tree-hole.

Ice Art

What is the difference
between this
and art?

The sun slices
through the mountain top
in a rainbow of light.

The sun shines through
the branches
in a halo
of light.

Soft, warm colors to warm
the cold, dark, rough
heart.

The micro-texture of winter.

Reality's Totem Pole

The totem pole starts with man,
then to trees, to mountain,
and ends in the clouds.

Winter's singular promise of hope:
this will eventually end.

Some days
have the most interesting
cloud textures.

Waves of light
pour beneath
the clouds.

Walking home in winter with others

is an old tradition.

This wisdom is a moment away 

from the daily distractions

to spend it with 

the important people.

Rusty Gears

How many times to we reach
this point in the year
and feel the rust
slowing the
gears of change?

The gritty steel of resolve
will keep them moving.

2015

The force of nature rises and falls in beautiful form 

to balance the tides of change.

Shattered Reflection

A crushed mirror
reflects the puzzle
of light,
focus,
and texture.

The hardest part was getting the right focus
when there is so little light.

at just the right time
to create beauty.

I'm just trying to be myself

in a world full of others.
