Storm clouds just after sunset. I could really go for some Florida weather about now. It's 7 degrees Fahrenheit (-13 C) right now and getting colder. It's going to be -20 F with the wind chill tomorrow morning. Ugh.

For Monorail Monday here's a shot from the Contemporary Hotel. The inspiration for this photo goes to Scott Chenoweth. He did a similar shot and told me how he got it. I ended up shooting at a different location than his but he gave me the idea. Everyone have a great week.
They're back!!!!!! It's that time of year when the Osprey return to northern Colorado!!! Like clockwork, the lifelong mated pairs return to there nests, mostly manmade platforms high off of the ground. They spend the winters in south America apart from one another and then miraculously come back and meet at their nests around the same time each year. Nature is wonderful!!!
At last, I can see our ferry coming to pick us up, after our picnic at this location overlooking Old Harry’s Rock …Now I want you all to behave when we get aboard, and no telling the skipper how to steer his boat Halo or asking him silly questions like can he find some very deep water to sink my guitar 🎸 into
Two trains pass on Steelton Hill on December 1, 2015. Our first snow of the 2016-17 season is expected later this week, although the Ports are expected to miss the heavy stuff, which will fall on the Range.
After a long swim across the pond (see first comment below), and with mom impatiently egging her chicks on to move faster, this little black-necked stilt rushes to catch up with her and the other chicks. Go, little one!
My sincere thanks to all who spend the time to view, like or comment on my photos. It is much appreciated!

That cow was coming down the slope towards the cyclist and had a fair bit of momentum to it - you definitely wouldn't want to be in it's way!
This was taken while doing a route called Tom and Jerry around Hayfield in the Peak District, UK.
The New York Times Ethicist recently published a "ruling" on the ethics of AI generative art. He was responding to a person who wanted to use an Etsy image but was concerned the seller was profiting off the work of artists used to train generative AI. The Ethicist pointed out that artists have always stood on the shoulders of other artists, an argument that resonates with me. The image you see here is not simply the result of prompting an image in Midjourney because I made quite a few changes to it in Kira, using the Stable Diffusion plugin and using my digital painting skills and tools (like rearranging the chickens, recreating the woman in the distance, giving the man a hat etc.). But my influence on the image goes deeper. I used Midjourney's personalize parameter to generate images that reflect my aesthetic, color choices, brush work, level of detail and so on. The training was simple. I was given four thousand sets of widely diverse images and told to choose one of them. In other words, this is my unconscious "style." Unconscious because I did not deliberately tell Midjourney everything I prefer when I am painting. And in the act of grabbing from the gush of images this personalization parameter produced, I chose this image. Probably because I have re-discovered NC Wyeth who is famous for his illustrations of the old childhood novel "Treasure Island." He influences how I use illustration to tell stories. And Edward Hopper influences the mood of my work. And Norman Rockwell. Did Rockwell absorb NC Wyeth? I think so. Caravaggio gives my work its lighting. And perhaps NC Wyeth's son Andrew suffused my work. He taught me how to pay attention to the world immediately around me. And perhaps to some degree hundreds of more artists famous and obscure seen in museums, art workshops, videos and Internet images. In fact I have produced over 800 images of the Ravensway world using this amazing productive power of AI. A world that has storytelling power.
Another shot from that very picturesque morning overlooking Rydal water :) Thankyou for viewing , your comments and advice are always very much appreciated

as the sun sets in portixol, a seaside district of palma de mallorca, kayaks glide towards the harbor, their journey ending with the day. the photo titled "coming home" captures the essence of return, as the golden sunset caresses the mediterranean sea, welcoming the travelers back to the tranquility of shore.
