Te llevo de lo cotidiano a otra realidad,

Al estado de la incierta forma,

Territorio en el que habito cuando todos duermen. Puedes verme" Kase-O

Jackie and I loaded up our bikes and left the house at 4:30 AM; all bright-eyed and bush-tailed! We headed into Chicago for the "Bike the Drive" fund raising event.

 

For this event, Lake Shore Drive is closed down; and this year, 20,000+ bikers participated! It is an awe-inspiring sight to see so many bikers wheeling down Lake Shore Drive!

 

But seeing the sun rise up over Lake Michigan is the big bonus for me; which is why this photo was my favorite of the day! It was a wonderful day to ride with the temps in the upper 70s, lower 80s. Last year, it was in the 30s with a bone chilling head wind off the lake. We were done with the ride and home by 9:00 AM!!

I have barely begun the process of going through my 7K+ collection of images. I had so many ideas for today's post ... but when I saw Irene's post of our epic sunset photoshoot at Baker Beach, and Char's post of our epic sunset photoshoot at the Berkeley Pier; I decided to go backwards and post my epic sunset shot at Pfeiffer Beach in Big Sur with Sarah P ... my last sunset of the trip.

 

More importantly, I want to dedicate this post to everyone who took care of me on my 16-Day California Safari. I am overwhelmed by the kindness of everyone ... meeting up with old friends ... and meeting new friends. This was the trip of a lifetime, and it wouldn't have been possible without them.

 

Last of all, I want to make a special dedication to a new friend, Aurelia. You are in my thoughts & prayers. {{hugs}} ♥♥♥

 

Happy Sliders {Sunset} Sunday!! I sure missed my Flickr peeps!

"And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting"

 

I think this covers a few cliches: a lone bird (a raven), a barren tree, a nice color gradient and a bit of poetry from Edgar Allen Poe thrown in for good measure! (It wasn't Midnight, or December but I have a raven)! Though it would've been even more cliche if I had "placed" the bird! :D

 

This was actually taken in the Grand Canyon and the sky really was stormy (we got soaked); and some awesome canyon shots! All the tourists left when it rained; but not us! Forgot to mention, we also saw a rainbow!

 

Happy Cliche Saturday Everyone!!

We tend to celebrate light in our pictures. Understanding how light interacts with the camera is paramount to the work we do. The temperature, intensity and source of light can wield different photography effect on the same subject or scene; add ISO, aperture and speed, the camera, the lens type, focal length and filters…the combination is varied ad multi-layered and if you know how to use them all, you will come to appreciate that all lights are useful, even those surrounded by a lot of darkness.

 

We are guided by three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, our longing to capture in print, that which is beautiful, the constant search for the one picture, and constant barrage of new equipment and style of photography. These passions, like great winds, have blown us across the globe in search of the one and we do understand the one we do look for might be this picture right here for someone else out there.

 

“A concise poem about our work as stated elow

 

A place without being

a thought without thinking

creatively, two dimensions

suspended animation

possibly a perfect imitation

of what was then to see.

 

A frozen memory in synthetic colour

or black and white instead,

fantasy dreams in magazines

become imbedded inside my head.

 

Artistic views

surrealistic hues,

a photographer’s instinctive eye:

for he does as he pleases

up to that point he releases,

then develops a visual high.

- M R Abrahams

Been wanting to shoot this sign forever. Made a special trip to get it. Great South O steak house - been there for years, though I've never been inside. Probably should before it goes away. Looks very old-school inside.

If I were to send you a postcard, I would try to write this sound. The way ice crashes into the water below like a wind-opened door in a blizzard. The uneven tempo of water flowing through multiple crevasses at once like overlaying courtyard fountains at dusk. The crunch of metal into steps like ice crackling in fresh lemonade. And the utter silence of awe, only marked by our own heartbeats.

 

|| Spent today hiking on Glaciar Perito Moreno. Glaciers, my friends. This is real life. And a fantastic way to end my trip. Patagonia has been good to me, and I'll definitely miss it. But I still have more to share.. ||

Chasinglight...

“Sit in reverie and watch the changing color of the waves that break upon the idle seashore of the mind.” ~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

 

My sunset buddy! He took pause for a mere moment ... then went back to his usual shenanigans (eating and throwing sand, stomping through the waves in his boots ...)!

 

Happy Friday!

  

Yet there are always a few who are not content to spend their lives indoors. Simply knowing there is something unknown beyond their reach makes them acutely restless. They have to see what lies outside – if only, as George Mallory said of Everest, 'because it’s there.'

 

This is true of adventurers of every kind, but especially of those who seek to explore not mountains or jungles but consciousness itself: whose real drive, we might say, is not so much to know the unknown as to know the knower.

 

Such men and women can be found in every age and every culture. While the rest of us stay put, they quietly slip out to see what lies beyond.
