#BlueSkyArtShow This sweet, #small cygnet portrait was created in soft pastel. I did this piece featuring fluffy baby swans for use in Easter card designs. Prints & cards with my art may be found at the links in my profile. #art #birds
Soft pastel artwork picturing two baby swans with cream colored down and dark gray beaks. The birds are facing each other with one higher on a background of purple and rust.

Happy Thanksgiving in the US! Here's a turkey portrait that I did several years ago. He looks like a critter that I wouldn't want to annoy today. #Thanksgiving #BirdArt
Soft pastel artwork of a turkey's head in three quarter view looking to the viewer's right on a beige background. The turnkey has pale blue around the brown eye and vivid red wattles.

At water's edge, leaves drown
in eternal baptism or float in the shadows of what they once were.
Birth & burial. River & root.
The water accepts fallen leaves like confessions.
Absolves sin into silt.
A solemn graveside service.

A close-up of mossy creek bank, where leaves have gathered, many under the water & others in the process of sinking. Tree trunks are mirrored in the water.

Probably the last opportunity of the season to capture flower and insects. Here a European hornet on an ivy flower.
No risk of being attacked, the hornet is too busy building reserves for the winter.
A close-up macro photograph of a hornet perched on a cluster of small green buds, showing its yellow and reddish body, detailed wings, and textured head. The background is softly blurred, making the insect and plant sharply stand out.

A large feathery rather spreading vapour trail or cloud, tinged with a pink glow from the setting sun. There are darker denser grey clouds on the right above the silhouetted tree tops.

When I am not at work, I try (although this year...) to maintain my sanity by wandering around with a camera, taking bad photos at random.

For those who need help sleeping, more can be found over at www.flickr.com/photos/shynd...

Feel free to use and abuse, but an attribution wouldn't go amiss.

Harping back to warmer days of summer for today's #BNWmacro shot, a lone sunflower in a pot outside a home in East Berlin, PA; a #small town that often has the most delightful and colorful sidewalk displays.

Small ice crystals on a frosty morning
Looking at a metal fence on a frosty morning in January. The fence is covered in small white ice crystals. Behind is a frosty field with a glorious fiery red sunrise in a grey sky

Above a blue strip of Lake Ontario, a large flowing cloud lit up brilliantly in pink and orange by the unseen setting sun. There's a paler glow behind and under the cloud. The pale blue sky is visible where the clouds dissipate at the top of the image.
