“As pieces of cloud dissolve in the sunlight.” — Rumi When I saw this and made the picture I didn’t know what I had. What a wonderful scene as nature created it. I just had to let it find me. That was the hard part. The easy part was pushing the button. Call it what […]
Silhouettes
Heading For The Light
Number two. I said that I made a lot of pictures of one of the most amazing sunsets that I’ve seen in many moons. This is the second one. I hate to say this, but I was only about ten steps from yesterday’s picture. I just saw it, walked a bit, and pressed the button […]
The Next Two Days
We have agreement. There is a big, huge storm headed this way and to the rest of the Southeast coming tomorrow. Supposedly, there will be punishing rains, high winds and the possibility of tornadoes. Some say. The storm will be warm. Others say the storm will be cool and will usher in another cold front. […]
Deep, Dark, Dreamless
Look up. Sometimes, that’s where the picture lies. I did that the other night at around dusk. I was housebound and I need to get outside for a few minutes. I made the picture about ten steps from the door. Is there a lesson in there someplace? Nah. I’ve preached enough about going outside when […]
In the Shadows

Beautiful World
Silent Sunday. I made this picture as another cold front was blowing through. It helped make the sky dramatic. It helped to paint it. And, luckily, I turned around to see it. Enjoy your day.
Sometimes I Do
I don’t usually post a picture from the same take two days in a row unless it’s from an event like a second line. I sort of feel like I’m either cheating or not doing my work very well. But, an old friend of mine who is rarely on Facebook commented about yesterday’s work. She […]
In The Morning
In the morning. When you rise. Do you think of me? From an old Crosby, Stills and Nash song. Without Young. The band that will never play together. That’s a long story. Maybe I’ll tell it some day. At least, as I know it. Let’s just say that there are too many old resentments and […]
On This Day
Today. Today is a sacred day. On a bright fall morning in 2001 our world changed. Terrorists crashed two airliners into the Twin Towers in the city of my birth, New York. They crashed a third plane into the Pentagon, the hub of our military in Washington D.C. They tried to steer a fourth plane […]
