Chaos is the science of surprises, of the nonlinear and the unpredictable. It teaches us to expect the unexpected. While most traditional science deals with supposedly predictable phenomena like gravity, electricity, or chemical reactions, Chaos Theory deals with nonlinear things that are effectively impossible to predict or control, like turbulence, weather, the stock market, our brain states.
Something different, just for fun. I just associated the word "chaos" with the hurricane season and we'll have maybe a major hurricane next week...total chaos!
I am not afraid of the darkness or the night. I'm afraid of the silence - where there is nothing to hide me from my own screaming thoughts...
This was the year that a giant earthquake hit Nepal. The people of Manaslu all suffered great losses in this chaos.
Point de hautes falaises pour ces chaos rocheux mais des suites et empilements de gros blocs de roches, à se demander comment et pourquoi ces chaos rocheux jalonnent les 2 côtés du sentier.

Love the perpetual festive spirit of this roundabout, the iconic Piccadilly Circus is always a merry-go-round :)

On September 10th, 2017 Hurricane Irma slammed into the Florida Keys with the eye of the category 4 storm coming across the lower Keys over Cudjoe and Big Pine Key. We went down there this week to survey the damage to our island paradise. Almost two months later, there are still piles of storm debris lining the roadways. Many of our favorite spots are gone, now just a memory, and the thick, dense tropical vegetation is very sparse. It will be many years before it grows back resembling the island paradise we once knew... 10/30/17

After crossing the Straits of Florida and being upgraded to a Category 4 hurricane, initial landfall took place at Cudjoe Key at 9:10 am. EDT on September 10, where an estimated 10 ft storm surge occurred during the afternoon. In the Keys, the hurricane caused major damage to buildings, trailer parks, boats, roads, the electricity supply, mobile phone coverage, internet access, sanitation, the water supply and the fuel supply. Key West, Sugarloaf Key, Summerland Key, Ramrod Key, Little Torch Key, Big Pine Key and Marathon were also flooded by storm surge, and tornadoes were reported at Sugarloaf Key. Chaos!

Sometimes photos are deceiving because its our job as photographers to simplify the chaos and make "Art" out of it. However, the reality is the place itself could be very chaotic and the "order" that we created/presented could be a combination of many techniques. Like we might position our camera in a way to hide certain part of the messiness, or in post-processing cloning out some distractions etc.
Ok, back to this image - this was my first attempt this year to St.Helens trying to capture its beauty after a long winter here in Washington state. It was a calm night however followed by an unexpectedly harsh morning. It was crazy windy and snowflakes were blown around like knifes on my face. I set up my tent not far from this location, and had to rush back because I knew my 3-season tent wouldn't last long in this environment. Indeed it crashed when I went back.
This image was a quick capture of that morning, where I tried my best to embrace the cold, and still kept walking around trying to find some sort of order among all the chaos. I ended up focusing on these logs buried in snow which leads to the mountain. I quite like this image because of the side light lighting up the snow and logs.
