My Cotton Lavender bush must be heading for 20 years old now, and a bit wild and straggly with an enormous trunk several inches thick. It has hundreds of these bright yellow button flowers. In spite of several attempts, this is as close as I could get to focusing on this particular flower...

The last of the cotton grass on Stanage Edge with the heather in the background starting to take over.
Mount Rainier looking like a giant cotton candy at sunrise. I don't know who this photographer is, but he stood in this spot with his tripod for over an hour, providing me with a perfect subject for a sense of scale. Thank you my friend!

The ribs of the aluminum hoppers kick back the last rays of the day as another coal train heads east down the Sand Hills Subdivision. One of the things I noticed about the Midwest sunsets are the strong pink, purple and blue hues that can develop in the east. I've seen it before on the East Coast but only occasionally during the year, not at frequently as I did over my short visit to Nebraska.
A summer sky over moorland flecked with cotton grass. Image taken from close to the Upper Burbage Bridge, looking towards the Cowper Stone end of Stanage Edge.
Approaching my 12th year in my current condo in Midtown Atlanta. It's a tiny place (by most non-NYC standards), at only 740 square feet. But I knew the moment I saw the space -- the view alone made it an easy decision. And day after day, the view continues to amaze me. And while it's been fascinating to watch 17 of these builds (near and far) be built from the ground up, it's the sky that captivates me.
I remember growing up seeing photos in magazines and books of such vivid colors in the skies, thinking to myself, "that didn't happen. I've never seen such colors in the sky." Thankfully, I see them now. Several times a week.
On this day, I was working from home (right by the window) and watched as the sun set; the hues settled in the most gorgeous blues and pinks... cotton candy skies, indeed.
Those straw bales remind me of wooden cotton reels.
Did anyone ever get a wooden cotton reel, a pencil, a match stick, a slice of candle and a rubber band and make a vehicle that could race across the floor? Or combine several cotton reels to make a more powerful vehicle?
Have I got to make one and photograph it to show you what it is like? Fifty years ago I would have said, "What's a PlayStation?" Now, bet kids say, "What's a cotton reel?"

Shortly after sunrise the sky was soaked up with a pallet of pastel tones.

Texas is the largest cotton producer in the nation. But the crop costs more to grow than ever before: energy costs have escalated significantly; seed costs are much higher but help improve efficiency with pest resistance and herbicide tolerance (boll weevil infestation has hindered crop yield for over a century). Delta and Pine Land Company (D&PL) has been the provider of quality cotton seed varieties in the south, central and east regions of the state for decades. The high-tech billion dollar company produces transgenic seed. Patented variety “445” is a top-performing, mid-maturing type with outstanding potential for both yield and fiber quality. Who'd a thunk it??

Took a trip onto the moors at Ringinglow Saturday evening with Sarah, Phil and Andy to shoot the cotton grass which is an amazing sight at the moment, I've never seen it looking this good and it stretches as far as the eye can see. I managed to get this shot of it being backlighted by the warm evening sun shortly before it disappeared for the night.(1/125 f7.1 @ 33mm 0.6 hard ND grad + 0.9 reverse ND grad filters)

The butterflies come back to me
With peace of mind for broken wings
And these days are harder than the last, I know
But this is a song we all know
We live and learn and let go
So tell me
Tell me what your eyes see
When they stare right through me
Can they see my heart beat
Tell me why the rain can't wash away the blame
Can't take away the pain to make you see again
Cause all I wanna be is anything

I worked really hard on a picture for the alphabet collab today, but I don't like it very much. I'm going to try really hard to shoot it again tomorrow.
I replaced day 85 with a new photo.
Thank you Sammy for the lovely testimonial. <3
