These delicate wild choke cherry blossoms were hard to shoot with the breeze whispering steadily by, but was able to get this shot.

Oh, morning sun, before you'll rise

Before you'll come and shine again on us

Let me find, let me find, let me find

Some comfort in the night

 

this was part of a collaboration i did with Andrea Piepe. we wanted to pick a common theme for our photos; we decided on "shadows"

 

normally, when i create a photo around a theme like shadows, the photos turn our a bit dark and distorted and somber. . . however, i wanted to turn this theme upside-down this time and expose the beauty of shadows.

we all have our little secrets and dark places, but they don't make us monsters ! they make us vulnerable and delicate and beautiful ! that is what i wanted to emote.

An early start for this trip up to Delicate Arch in Arches National Park, Utah. We hadn't made the hike up here during the day so this was quite the adventure attempting to find this place in the absolute darkness of the early morning. After a 2am start and a few wrong turns we made it up here as you don't see this arch until you are pretty much right on top of it. What an amazing place to be at that time of day/night as it can be quite busy up here for sunset, I think we choose the right time as we were the only ones there. Did a few shots of the night sky but no milky way as it wasn't quite in the right place and as this arch is perched right on the top of a mountain with very steep drop offs on either side its difficult to know where you're going in the dark when you've not been up here before. Just as it was getting light the chipmunks seemed to come out of nowhere and were quite happy to share our cereal bars with us!

As delicate as you look like your smile, as the memories that I return to you again and again ...

The world famous "Delicate" arch in Arches National Park. It really took and hdr to get any of the detail in the shadow areas. I hope the hdr helps to allow the light to sculpture the rock.

This view is from the opposite side (across a valley), and in that regard is unusual.

A solitary bluebell standing alone looking rather fragile and delicate.

I am very much drawn to dandelions. Me and many other artists and photographers find in this plant (weed) such a compelling theme. My logo was a dandelion too. I believe it is so fascinating given the fact of its simplicity, delicate and the fact we can find it everywhere. One of the best photographers I've seen is by no doubt, our friend, Mylens. Thank you Mylens for such inspiration too!

This was four shots stitched together in Hugin. Look closely at near the upper center portion to see Delicate Arch in Arches National Park. Hiking up the rock formations on the other side of the valley really gives you a new perspective on the arch and the geology that formed it.

I wish these delightful Sweetheart roses were growing in my garden, but instead I spotted them growing all around a parking lot beside some new stores & restaurants that just popped up! A beautiful sight, especially in October!

One of the many patterns that have been formed around the hot springs at Mammoth Hot Springs, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, US. These were such beautiful, thin, delicate layers.

 

"Mammoth Hot Springs is a large complex of hot springs on a hill of travertine in Yellowstone National Park ... It was created over thousands of years as hot water from the spring cooled and deposited calcium carbonate (over two tons flow into Mammoth each day in a solution). Although these springs lie outside the caldera boundary, their energy has been attributed to the same magmatic system that fuels other Yellowstone geothermal areas... A caldera is a cauldron-like volcanic feature usually formed by the collapse of land following a volcanic eruption. They are sometimes confused with volcanic craters."
