Ron, a beautiful, sixty year old man who agreed to pose for me one summer afternoon. Nudist, trucker, motorcyclist, he's very proud of his masculine body.
Vista delle Lower Yellowstone Falls da Artist Point, Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, Wyoming, USA
Uno dei punti più fotografati del parco, mostra l'ingresso dello Yellowstone River nel coloratissimo canyon.
Taken at Artist Point, Yellowstone NP in 2009. Hit 'L' to view large and on black!
This was a last minute attempt at getting some decent light. Our original spot looked real promising till the fog rolled in and we basically hauled a** to get to this spot and was rewarded by some pretty spectacular light!
Btw, i'm not sure if you face this problem, but the advertised 'absolutely neutral' SR Reverse grads, especially those of higher stops actually throw magenta tints comparable to my 15 dollar Cokin ones, even without stacking.... Hmm..
My son came along with me to this event and while I was taking pictures (and waiting in a really long snow cone line) he brought his art supplies and made some epic sketches.
Fanconia Ridge back left, Echo Lake, and Canon Mountain on the right. Most of a week in New Hampshire but could do much hiking due to a foot injury so I did some trail magic instead. This was the best view I could get. It's only a half mile trail but it's pretty steep.
Classic view of the Lower Falls from the Artist's Point, Grand Canyon of Yellowstone NP. The first glimpse of this awe-inspiring view will make you gasp; you and the hundreds of other people all crowding around the railing taking self portraits, group portraits, long exposures, point-n-shoot snaps. Then the tourist bus leaves and you may get a better chance at the rail for a short while before the next bus arrives....
To give you an idea of the scale here, look at the large view; just to the right of the top of the falls is a viewing platform crowded with tiny people.
After viewing the canyon from multiple vista points on 2 different days, I think I've figured out the source of the name Yellowstone !
Rudyard Kipling described "The Yellowstone" in 1891:
I looked into a gulf seventeen hundred feet deep, with eagles and fish-hawks circling far below. And the sides of that gulf were one wild welter of color—crimson, emerald, cobalt, ochre, amber, honey splashed with port wine, snow white, vermilion, lemon, and silver gray in wide washes. The sides did not fall sheer, but were graven by time, and water, and air into monstrous heads of kings, dead chiefs—men and women of the old time. So far below that no sound of its strife could reach us, the Yellowstone River ran a finger-wide strip of jade green.

Artist Adamu L. Hernandez Granados works on his Tibetan-themed painting. I wandered into the Instituto Allende and met Adamu. He was very nice and extremely gracious, allowing me to photograph him while he painted. The Instituto Allende is an extension of Guanajuato University that offers college courses in the arts.
That artist ...?
People who are struggling in the arts, are always able to be a magnet for others. In addition to his abilities, this person who is usually called an artist can anesthetize many people through his thoughts, creativity, work, voice or even life. Artists can also change the world, through everything they have.
Indeed, this opinion can never be strong without other supporting factors. But rest assured that the majority of people will argue the same. "Artists are not jobs, even just professions." More precisely is a way of expression, pouring thoughts that accumulate in the brain. Being an artist, is not necessarily based on always looking for money. But satisfaction. Yes, inner satisfaction, which is priceless by anything. Money, will flow along with the satisfaction of others who enjoy, watch, listen, feel and do it.
Artists never want to be far from their world. He never likes to stop working. He always wants to make others feel that they are all in the arts environment, also feel it together. Artists also always say that the world is art. Art that can finally make the world beautiful, not far from what is in the mind of the artist.
Sometimes, an artist is not much different from a crazy person. That's because his thoughts are not as logical as sane people in many communities. But thanks to his thinking, artists can create crazy things that are not thought of by many people. Also sometimes, sorry, like "tramp" and "scavenger". Because he often does not look "neglected", by maintaining what he was wearing at that time. Sometimes he doesn't eat, thinks of his work that is about to end, so that no one can block him. Sometimes he also "picks up" things or things that are no longer useful to many people, just to let them know that nothing is useless and can be used in this world, through the intellect that they have
Remember, "artists are not work". Artists want to tell that there is another world in the human subconscious, which so far has not been known and used by humans. But the majority of artists know and use it.
"Artists are not just a profession either." He just wants his voice, his work, his creativity, his abilities and all what he wants, to be appreciated by others. Nothing more than that. The rest, they want to be understood that an artist is also a human being, who also needs life.
Artists are not "beggars", who only hope for the mercy of others. Picking up rupiah by bowing your head without shame. Artists are also not willing to get compassion from others, because what is needed is nothing more than an appreciation and understanding.
Try to examine, what would life be like without artists as God's intermediaries to create musical instruments? Also dances, painting strokes, a beautiful poem and so forth. It's just, has the public examined it? The public's view of artists is like the wind. They just watch and listen, after that they go home and eventually they will forget. Or they are only limited to want to take part while as connoisseurs of art, after which disappeared no news.
Do you know what life is like for an artist? For one of his works, sometimes he needs a lot of food, to prop their stomachs for days. For one ability, sometimes they also need the same time as a baby to refer to standing alone, walking and running. For one appearance, he also always needs half of his life by risking his mind and endurance.
"Time". Yes, that's the life of an artist. That's also the essence of everything that an artist needs. But it is also time that artists can never have. Time always runs away leaving the artist so fast.
Do you know what will be the end of an artist's journey? The answer is still the same. "Time". The mass for an artist will be exhausted when his mind is full of millions of imaginations, which he will no longer have the chance to carry out. When his fingers are no longer able to write beautiful poems. When his voice began to discord unheard. Also his feet could not support his thin body. At that time, the mass of an artist was fairly over.
But not for his heart. He was still able to feel what was happening around him. He is still able to hear what beauty is. And finally, he will continue to feel happy even though in reality, the end of the mass of an always marginalized artist is also forgotten. An artist's happiness arises, when what he is doing, can make other people happy, "fuck" with himself. He will continue to wear his mask of happiness, and will continue to try to create it, until time no longer allows artists to keep breathing.
Then, what do you think about artists? Fill in the answers according to what you want about him, what you think about him, and what you think is all worthy of him. Obviously, artists are human ...
