out of a fungus doom

from way, way down low......

During my recent trip back to Nevada, I captured the beautiful Milky Way glowing in the early hours of last Wednesday—around 4 AM.
I've been working on the color scheme of this image on-and-off for some time never satisfied with the result...
Cosmic Dust Ritual
My Interplanetary Memories
Interplanetary Travel
I was watching the sunset under a red cosmic dust cloud when I took this photo. I was sitting in silence enjoying this unique view in the sky. It was a moment when I felt very, very lucky. I had not yet given a name to this nebula I had just discovered. Instead of naming this nebula, I decided to savor the moment. A nebula or nebula is a nebula structure in space made up of cosmic dust, hydrogen, helium, and other ionized gases spread over vast areas. They were the remains of a dying star. Even billions of years old stars can have an end. When I think about it, a shudder takes over my body. While the concept of the end sometimes causes peace and excitement in me, the concept of the end sometimes causes fear in me. A concept that can put you in volatile moods is the ending. Maybe I should stop thinking about the end. But I still can't stop myself from thinking about my end. There is a result that I have experienced with nebulas and which surprised me quite a bit. I always felt a tremendous sense of peace in the face of all the cosmic dust landscapes I encountered. I was able to sleep better at night. And when I woke up, I felt that my whole body was completely relaxed. The dreams I had when I slept under the cosmic dust were also different. At night, I had dreams that made me happy and did not tire my mind. I discovered that cosmic dust causes positive results in the human body and soul. However, I have never measured it scientifically. It was just an observational discovery. Even thinking about those moments gives me peace right now. Again, I can't wait to encounter a cosmic dust landscape, the nebula.

This started out as an Echinacea purpurea flower...then I got ahold of it and drowned it in textures and layers of layers.
Now, I'm not sure what it is...FREAKY!

Hello everyone,

Everyone loves fireworks, but can you beat natures show?
This shot was taken on Ferron Mountain in central Utah on the 4th of July. It has been an amazing and difficult pring for night photography. Yet it has also given the opportunity for some unique images. Completely amazed at the amount of snow that is still on Skyline Drive.

This sparkling jumble is Messier 5 — a globular cluster consisting of hundreds of thousands of stars bound together by their collective gravity.
But Messier 5 is no normal globular cluster. At 13 billion years old it dates back to close to the beginning of the Universe, which is some 13.8 billion years of age. It is also one of the biggest clusters known, and at only 24 500 light-years away, it is no wonder that Messier 5 is a popular site for astronomers to train their telescopes on.
Messier 5 also presents a puzzle. Stars in globular clusters grow old and wise together. So Messier 5 should, by now, consist of old, low-mass red giants and other ancient stars. But it is actually teeming with young blue stars known as blue stragglers. These stars spring to life when stars collide, or rip material from one another.

Friends, when I was in my mid-40s (before I ever picked up a camera) an intuitive/seer told me that I was an artist who needed to be making art. I resonated with what she said. I immediately bought some art materials and started making art. No instruction. Among the first images I made were many mandalas ... all about the circle form. I recently came across some of those early creations in an old portfolio and had them made into digital images so I could share them with you. This one, Cosmic Abstract, was made with art markers on poster board (and countless hours of obsessive detailing, lol!)
My intention was to suggest a many-layered multi-dimensional reality wherein the unseen, due to its vastness, can only be pointed to, but is both very real and more monumental than all of that which can be seen. Since I will be 'graduating' from Planet Earth this month, sharing these is a now-or-never deal. More to come. Many blessings to you all. Thank you, from deep in my heart, for your interest in my work. ♥ K.
(p.s.: the "Taken on November 3, 2016" under the image is incorrect. That's the date I loaded the digitized image onto my computer. I created this piece sometime in 2000 or 1999.)
There was a bat flying about in the middle of the day~~I tried a number of times to capture little video clips of it without any luck~~the clips are kind of funny, appears that the camera is just moving about randomly scanning the woods.
This is the best thing that I could get out of the bat chasing adventure.
Cosmic Dance || New Zealand
There are certain times as a photographer when events line up in perfect harmony. In this case, I was very fortunate to be in the Aoraki Mackenzie Dark Sky Reserve near Lake Tekapo New Zealand with a crystal clear sky coinciding with a new moon. This gave me a wonderful opportunity to capture an enormous amount of stars streaking across the pristine sky.
I love shooting star trails because I feel as though it creates a very powerful mood in my imagery. Obviously, having a strong foreground element is a big part of the puzzle when trying to create an immersive scene, and the Church of the Good Shepherd has become an extremely popular location for this type of photography. Being that it’s such an awesome looking old stone structure, it’s easy to see why so many stargazers and photographers love this spot so much.
For everyone who’s downloaded my Photographing The World: Cityscape, Astrophotography, and Advanced Post-processing video tutorial on Fstoppers, you’ll just know this photo as Lesson 18. ;)

Pildappa Rock,
South Australia
After the previous night shoot at Murphy's haystacks and having had clear skies all day in the Gawler Ranges, I thought there was a good chance to get some milky way shots over pildappa rock. Unfortunately, trying to photography this immense rock with stars was a compositional challenge with the milky way directly overhead. Shortly after last light, cloud then rolled in which was followed by moonrise so I headed back to our motel in Minnipa. This was one of the only night shots I took from that evening.

I think it is time for a daylight shot or my followers will think that I only live at night...
This is structure is called Cosmic Astray or Escalante Volcano, but I perfer to call it the Eye of Earth.
