Renew

My sweet new friend,
a neighbor's dog,
helps me move on.
2018, may you renew.

2016

Father and daughter.
A new year
beyond their love.
Goodbye 2016.
I won't miss your pain.

2015

The coming New Year
promises the angelic
opportunity to
create magic.

The Autumn colors shine through the glassy ice,

shattered by freezing imperfections.

Soft Red Light

Red brick.
Soft light.

2016

Happy face at play.

2015

Storm clouds clear,
exposing the blush
of morning.

2014

A unique winter allowed for a warm marsh
along with fresh snow to create
fog on the first really
cold winter morning.

Frozen Web

Frozen crystals
grow from the
spider's web.

2016



Still looking at her.

2015

The shape of the tree and cloud
seem to mirror a kind of
fundamentally shared shape.

2014

Magic Morning Playground

The best of this Season
reminds us of youthful magic.

Among the Darkness

Bright spot
among the darkness.

Look at those
beautiful eyes.

A long exposure
exposes the night's
spaces and lights.

it always make me feel the peaceful beauty
of nature's simplicity.

The cloud-formed face of a lion,
illuminated by its inner sun,
roars clouds
into the sky.

Frozen Motion

Under the right conditions, 

Mother Nature sculpts time

in frozen motion.

Enjoy Her.

Deep Color

Deep color.
Tall mountain.
Fire sky.

Life as family

2015

The lights of the season
run like a string within the form
etched from the sun's glow.

Snow Angel

... or an angel with snow on it.

Rising Above

The golden light
rises above the
mountain peak.

2016

Her life
was the gift
of her joy.

2015

What a glorious confluence
of nature and man,
creating an almost
fearful yet beautiful
image of industry.

The fading expectation of a season's end
fixed by the moment of
magical expression,
followed by the
mundane experience
of returning to reality.

2014

Magnify Love

No matter what we are, 

the best of what we are 

is when we 

magnify love 

among ourselves. 

Footprints

A single treck
through thick snow.

Focus

An ornament appropriate
for the day.

Bubbles of light
dance in the soft embrace
of silent snow.

2014

A classic image of a white Christmas
idealizes the Holidays
in Holladay City Center.

Flowers for Her

The bitter-sweet love
of loss is
reflected by
the icy beauty.

2016

Because of the sudden,
tragic loss of my sweet girl,
this daily blog will hold her image
for a time...

2015

The metaphorical morning
a tree of life might
be born.

2014

Little Nature Chairs

I imagine these are
the resting place of gnomes
and elves ...
or maybe just
squirrels and birds.

Painted Sky

The sky is painted
with form and light.

2016

In memory of my little
sweet girl
who has
passed.

A lonely twig stands
at the edge of a
frosty ledge.

2014

Memories of Spring

In this first day of Winter,
let us remember the
promise of Spring.

Darkened Sun

Shortest day.
Smoky sky.
Darkened sun.

2016

The sky,
the clouds,
a dramatic sky.

2015

The cold, lonely, empty face of wise winter
speaks a single message:
cover yourself
in warmth.

2014

The Darkest Day

The longest day of the year
can feel like
being trapped
underwater.

Days to Come

Green trees.
Bright light.
Cool path.

2016

The shape of the mountains,
the rise of the sun,
the form of the clouds,
create this valley sun-spot.

2015

As the end of one season
gives rise to the promise
of the next,
let us never forget
the possibility
of growth.

2014

Autumn's Shadow

This year the shadow of autumn
has stuck around to an amazing
and frightening
extent.
