One can see as many things in decaying roots as they see in fluffy clouds.

End of a Glorious Day

Spending time with my mother, a golden sky at sunset, a feeling of peace like no other.

Half moon

Clouds drift by a half moon, while two young lovers standing a few feet away from me take this moment to kiss.

An unexpected snow storm at the Portland Oregon Zoo had everyone smiling. Some were calling home, elated, sharing their experience with family and friends. Overjoyed voices exclaiming “It’s SNOWING” could be heard all around. I took the opportunity to capture the reaction from one inanimate object nearby. I think he enjoyed catching snowflakes on his tongue as much as I did. It was wonderful to see such a high level of snow enthusiasm.

Dedication

A small web bends grass and reed, supporting the tiny frame of a spider, suspended delicately above the fish who are anticipating what may fall from her web into their mouths.
