Shooting stars fly across the Winter Milky Way on a star filled night near Limon, Colorado. Foregrounded by a barbed wire fence and a wooden gate, this single shot image expresses the rural beauty and dark, transparent skies of the Eastern Plains of Colorado.

A borby blue-headed corvid called a Woodhouse's Scrub-jay waits patiently with his junk in the fresh snow covering my Emory Oak tree while I take pictures before filling the peanut bowl. Zen birding.

Storms break,
Unrepentant.

The relevant,
The useful,
Now washed away
Down river.

Love, glorious love
Remains. 💙

We breath
Its tender humid blueness
Together.

Climb to the sun.
Your frozen boughs
Shimmer across the sky.

Your work is done.
Decades digging roots
Deep
In unforgiving soil.

Shine on, wild one.
Your legacy:
A forest
Of grit and grace.

So do I.
Time turns red
Before reawakening,
Betwixt, between,
Belonging again. ❤️

Rugged, renewed. 🌿

The spring woods are full of contrast when the sun is out. If you look very carefully, there are gems to be seen.

Disobeys fences
Gently,
With no defenses,
Unfurling
The scent of awe.

~Dance of Dandelions~

A small selection of Dandelion's puffs images (Dandelion's clocks). They are such a fine object for macro photography, so delicate, patterned and textured.

In Botswana, I captured these impalas bathed in golden light, caught between shadow and sunrise.
A reminder that nature speaks in contrast.

What’s the most peaceful moment you’ve ever captured with your camera?

And for #classicmono #mountainmonday, this enchanted moment last October.

See alt text for accompanying quote.
The Scottish Highlands, a black and white image of a tree on a hill with mist covered mountains behind. "There is such a place as fairyland - but only children can find the way to it...until they have grown so old that they forget the way. Only a few, who remain children at heart, can ever find that fair, lost path again...The world calls them singers and poets and artists and story-tellers; but they are just people who have never forgotten the way to fairyland." ~ Lucy Maud Montgomery

Holding the sky up
