Splattered Shapes

Mud splatters across
the surface to make
all kinds of shapes.

2017

Lines and tones
crisscross the frame.

2016
 

A wonderful harmony
between mountain and sky
paints this portrait
in tangerine.

2015

When we stand alone,
we sound different.

Wooden Swirl

Deep swirling lines
twist the wood into
the greenery.

2017

Dramatic clouds
move towards
the sunrise.

2016

This pink rose stands before
the only Redwood tree
in my neighborhood.

2015

Science is not a political perspective, 

a party of the people, 

a point of view... 

Science is data.

Rock Focus

Form and focus
make the rock
stand out.

2017

Deep white tones
frame the bright
flowers.

2016

Dusted transition.

2015

The mountains, the colors, the clouds...
they seem to be forged
from the rising sun.

Creep, Crawly Shadows

Like bony fingers,
tree shadows crawl
up the tower.

2017

The school's playground
invites the hands
to grab hold.

2016

Clouds blaze.

Trees stand.

2015

My Wind's Direction

I just want to share my sound.

Sun Kissed

Sun kissed sky.
Sun kissed mountain.
Sun kissed flowers.

2017

The snow-capped mountain top
holds tight the clouds,
colored by the sunrise.

2016

The bud looks like a baby,

swaddle and held

by mom.

I shot this while

a storm brewed

in the distance.

Pure luck.

Real or Fake

This paint splatter is legit.
I was walking noticed it on a driveway.
If it hadn't been for my brain's nature
to see patterns in everything,
I would have kept walking.

Smoky Light

Sun rising from behind
the mountain top
leaves a smoky trail.

2017

Bright yellow color
fills the eye
with Spring.

2016

Moments after I took this shot,
a beaver emerged,
creating ripples in
the mirror.

2015

There are memories I hated creating

but love recalling.

Early Spring Color

Early morning.
Early spring.

2017

When the clouds and sun
are just right,
the atmosphere
glows with color.

2016

The artistry of the fixed focal length lens.

2015

Family: those we share the burden of life with. 

Color Assault

Color assaults the sky
with early morning light.

2017

A close look at the reflection
reveals a lost love,
my sweet India.

2016

Every so often my local news
broadcasts my pic on the weather forecast.
With this one,
my number of years finally
equals the number on TV.

I thank the universe for mornings
like this one.

2015

I may care about how I affect others 

but that does not mean I control the outcome.

Snow Art

Melting snow makes
for interesting art.

2017

The pink tree
showers color
across the
front-yard.

2016

This feels like a metal
American flag
waving in the sky.

2015

A brisk morning walk to a choice spot
allowed me to catch this rare event.

Without the right equipment,

there's no chance at such a shot.

Little Icy Globes

Little icy globes
trap tiny blades
of grass.

2017

Walking along a path
I find Slenderman,
staring back from
the hand of a
child.

2016

Another view of a
popular pic.

2015

For a few beautiful weeks,
this tree matches the color of this little seat.
I can only image the joy of the child who swings here.

This post trends on Tumber.

Floating Clouds

Clouds float above
the horizon as the
sun rises.

2017

A sweet reddish
brown portrait.

2016

Orange line
blue sky.

2015

Bare-Chested Tree

Take a moment to notice the complete lack of limbs
on the front of this tree.

It looks like a living person;
like it could just walk by
with its many arms,
flowing hair,
and bare-chest.

Old Machinery

Old machinery has such
interesting shapes.

2017

Orange sky streaks
hang over the
snow-covered
mountain.

2016

Motion of view

2015

The sign says, 'Dead End,'
the sun says, 'new life,'
and the hydrant says,
'be careful.'

Open Wheel

The direction is
clearly labeled.
Open.

2017

A cascade of
complimentary
color.

2016

The colors,
shapes and hues
of the season.

2015

With change comes
the violence of upheaval
but the promise of rain.
