Morning Home

Morning light streams
shadows onto the street,
awaiting business.

2015

Playgrounds seem
much more colorful and exotic
than in decades past.

Pink Pedal Droplets

A path of dew-covered
pink petals
cover concrete.

I can't imagine what creature or condition 

this line of logs is meant to defend against.

Sunrise Flow

Colorful clouds pass below
glowing-orange overcast.

2015

The low light of the sun
captures morning dew
before it falls away.

Bird Cabin

For some birds,
only a cabin
will do.

2015

Buried in the foliage,
this soldier of the night has served many moons.

Sunrise Textured Clouds

Lower clouds paint
deep colors and bright hues
into the sky.

2015

This was shot was taken in the darkness of night.
A long exposure and a slight breeze softens
the clouds, leaves, and grass while leaving sharp the man-made things.

Wood Lines in Yellow Grass

Old wooden lines.
Yellow grass.

2015

Morning light slips through tree limbs
to splash color about
and awaken the landscape.

Mountain Peak Reflection

Spring showers
bring lots
of water.

This is a great example of why a great, colorful sunrise is so much more difficult to capture than a comparable sunset. Here, the light just slips under the clouds long enough to color the virga.

The color in a sunrise comes from the fickle prism-effect while the dependable doppler-effect is responsible for orange-red sunsets.

Morning Breakfast Field

Yummy spring flowers.

2015

If they want to maintain their prejudiced view of me,

it would be better if they don't get to know me. 

Flower Thing

This looks like a strange,
purple, flower monster
in a wet dress.

2015

An atmospheric reflection of the human concept of the opposites.
But darkness does not exist.
Light exists and its abundance dramatically varies.

Locked and Tied

After years of neglect,
the lock and change
are not the only things
holding on.

2015

Nature expressing color theory's
idea of complimentary.

Purple Wet Petals

Rain drops add texture
to the deep tones
of red and purple.

2015

Splat.

Dragon Cloud Face

The amazing hand of nature
creates images for us all
to enjoy.

2015

The light and shadow add flare
to this simple potted-plant.

Yellow Beard Petal Cap

This flower face comes complete
with yellow beard
and a petal hat.

2015

Paper-thin petals reveal
the sweet fractal center.

Flowers Around the Wall

Peek around the brink bend
and notice the flowers.

2015

Forced perspective adds an impossible
interpretation to the observable narrative.

Happy Green Buddha

The happy green Buddha
laughs with the
surrounding life.

2015

Roots grow and push through the temporary impediment.
It almost looks like a bare, tree leg
with a foot, wearing an asphalt sock.
