Ribbed Cloud Color


Colorful texture
folds clouds
into the heavens.

2017


Morning light spreads
color across the sky.

2016


A sunflower
facing the sun.

2015

Construction of a local baseball field
created these two stacks of chain-link fence parts,
new temporarily stacked next to old.

Light Shaft


At sunrise, a shaft
of light shines
through the clouds.

2017

Early spring means
early color,
early rain,
early light.

2016

Frosted black flower-buds
rise above the red brick.

2015


This image seems symbolic
of much of today's zeitgeist.

Alien Hell-Scape


A miniature view of
the mundane makes
for an alien world.

2017


If you fail today,
that's what
tomorrow's for.

2016


This amazing effect is created
by the horribly polluted air.

2015


Even dead flowers 
have a beauty of their own.

Peacock Sky


A strange atmospheric effect
crosses the morning sky,
pinning the full moon.

2017

This shot reminds me
of the color and texture
of the late sixties.

2016

Round bubbles of ice;
sharp ice crystals.

2015


If you look close, you'll see layers of clouds, light, and shadow.
Like many shots of the sunrise I've taken in the past,
the local weatherman featured this one
on his afternoon broadcast.

Green Perspective


The size of the tree
is realized when the
house is seen.

2017


A close up of the snow
reflects their arid
cousin the sand dune.

2016


From here,
it all appears
to be going
one way.

Smeared Cloud Color


Clouds smear color
across the morning sky.

2017

And here she is,
my new companion,
my new little
best friend....
all tied-up,
all ready for
adventure.

2016

Flowers coming,
opening,
tasting.

2015

Sometimes songs sound better
when I don't know the words.

Bright Yellow


Bright yellow promises
coming color.

2017


The day after my little man,
the father of my little girl,
was scheduled to die,
(death waits for no one;
he didn't make it),

I took my new friend,
my new companion
for a walk to the same spot
I last walked my little girl.

And I took this pic.

2016

A soft painting of light,
reflection, ice, and shadow.

2015

Like the small stream,
the small spike moves through time,
bound by limits.
Commonsense limits
can be beautiful.

Fence Window


The storm leaves
one fence frame
open to view.

2017


The day before my sweet girl
died,
I took this pic,
with her
by my
side.

2016


Just another day
walking my
best-friends.

2015


the simple contrast, the colors, 
the lines and shapes 
... calming

Color Cloud Lines


Contrails leave
lines of color.

2017

Bright moon light
flows across the
moving river.

2016

A comfortable walk
down the residential street,
filled with the tree and life.

2015

A passing storm perfectly cut
the mountain from the range.

Thick Paint


Like thick paint
the clouds
color the sky.

2017


Bright light pierces
a flood of pink flowers.

2016


The morning rises,
illuminating clouds over
the mountain house

2015


Know what's a poke in the eye?
When they say they want to help you
but just want to fix you.

Icicles


Ice, concrete, and darkness.

2017


What's happening?
Sad.

'Sad' tweeted the "Donald."
Everything's sad.
Flag down.

2016


Early morning fog forms.

2015


Early morning.
Valley view.
Glorious color.

Considering the Cliff


The way down
is long and steep.

2017

Puffy clouds
rise above
the mountain peak.

2016


A bolt of white strikes
the rooftop.

2015


The first rays of the morning light
illuminate this amber,
making it look more like lava,
frozen in time.

Gold Flakes of Cloud


Golden flakes of
colorful clouds
dot the horizon.

2017


Light rushes across
the spiky crown
of the dandelion.

2016

Dark tree fingers stretch
into the hot, colorful sky.

2015

The angle of the morning sun behind
these highly-textured clouds
add an almost rainbow
feel to the sky.
