Why ?
Art is a human connection, viewer and artist. With good art an emotional bond exist between viewer and artist. That human to human bond is broken when a machine is acting as the artist

In January you expect it to be cold which it is in this image, but the sun even at mid day though low on the horizon does it's work of warmth. Winter cold can have some great color. I abstract it here. Basic description is forest trees and forest floor. Snow and ice. Sky at top with sun.

Early morning, facing south around sunrise. Light coming from behind the tree tops illuminates the tops first leaving other areas still in shade. This effect accentuates the vibrancy of the color. Top in the image is sky, clouds and tree top. Bottom we have tree trunks and various mixed trees and foliage.

Basically the whole image is comprised of tree trunks and branches and leaves. The sun is coming from behind the trees. As it penetrates the forest the sun is blocked in some areas by dense foliage. In other areas it brilliantly back illuminates the fall color of the leaves.

Trees are standing carbon, absorbing more each day as they grow. Magnificent examples of life in motion doing the thing of living that now take on a new relevance. Bottom of image leaves from this fall. Middle image trees reaching up towards light. Top frame canopy of branches with a few leaves hanging on. All in a damp fog.

upper right brick fireplace. Center relaxation to the max, melted into the floor 2 cats on holiday. Caption was inspired by a song by John Hall Power Just give me the warm power of the sun Give me the steady flow of a waterfall Give me the spirit of living things as they return to play Just give me the restless power of the wind Give me the comforting glow of a wood fire But won't you take all your atomic poison power away Everybody needs some power I'm told To shield them from the darkness and the cold Some may seek a way to take control when it's bought and sold I know that lives are at stake Yours and mine of our descendants in time There's so much to gain and so much to lose Everyone of us has to choose

This artwork captures a spider’s orb web illuminated by strong light. The rainbow effect occurs when fine silk strands diffract and refract light, breaking it into a spectrum of vivid hues. Such webs are architectural feats: built overnight, maintained daily, and capable of withstanding both wind and the impact of flying insects.

Gallery tag In this expressive, motion-rich study of morning light, beech and birch trees dissolve into streaks of red, gold, and green. The rising sun ignites their autumn color, transforming solid forms into glowing gestures. The image captures not just the forest at dawn, but the energy and fleeting brilliance of a single sunrise moment.

A quiet stand of leafless trees meets a wide, luminous sky as the sun breaks through the branches. The sharp starburst of light contrasts with the darkened treeline, capturing the stillness and clarity of a cold morning. The deep blue above and the pale horizon below create a sense of depth and calm, inviting viewers to pause in the moment between night and day.

The last light of day fades over a quiet forest, where silhouetted trees frame the deepening blue of evening. A gentle transition from dusk to night captures nature’s stillness and the glow of high clouds inviting reflection on the boundary between light and shadow.
