You just never know what's going to happen next - neither do I.

No Ai was involved, just playing around to see what would come up.

Many long years ago, when I was living out on the plains of Colorado, I became acquainted with an elderly woman who loved nothing more than talking with everyone on her CB radio. Because she possessed a "green thumb" - her husband had given her the nick-name; "Flower Power". - which became her "handle" (her radio name in CB vernacular).

The sweet old woman passed away a few decades ago - but I still remember the joy she received (and gave) as she chatted with the long haul truckers that passed by her cozy little home, not too far from Interstate 70.

This one's for you "Flower Power".

Inspired by yet another gray drizzly day in the land of rain and glassy towers full of office cubicle farms.

Taken through the car's window

The vehicle was moving on the highway.

The morning sun has risen high enough now, that it is actually letting its lovely golden rays appear in my north facing windows! What a treat after the long dark winter.

HSS!

More manipulation fun from the downtown Seattle Public Library's exterior of masterfully meshed matrices.

A heat wave has been plaquing our whole country - so I thought I'd cool everyone down with a wintery slide.

HSS!

Yesterday, I went to a synchronized swimming competition for young people ranging in age from ten to about fourteen. I was amazed at how skilled they were at such a young age. I noticed that oftentimes, even their facial expressions were coordinated. I was sitting with their parents and you should of heard them cheer their kids on.

Thanks for stopping by and for leaving me a comment! Have a great day!

While roaming around the old paddle wheel boat "Keno" in Dawson City, Yukon - old items lying about caught my eye, and I couldn't resist capturing a few. In this image it was the ships drinking water that captured my attention. I wonder just how clean it was, back in the good old days.

Colorful experiment

I captured this image of the "Choir... by Nixon Muti" back in 2013 during an outdoor Zimbabwean art exhibit held on the grounds at RBG (Royal Botanical Gardens). The image was in color and it was one of my first attempts at digital manipulation, namely removing leaf shadows from the sculpture. Still, with a mostly green background, the image lacked the viewing impact I feel this b&w version has.

Changes are taking place in our boreal forest as we transition from summer to autumn. This bunny knows that he too will transition from his brown fur, to his snow-white winter fur, as he looks at the changing colors of the grasses that surround him. HSS!

An old photo back in 2011 that I had re-edited. Originally shot with an Olympus E-520.

The guy on the right looks quite initimidating even though not one piece of the chess has moved yet 😂.

Enjoy your day my friends!

I hope I'm not over-saturating my photostream with these blue rippled abstracts but It's so rare that I make so many in a series that I actually feel good about. And I have more waiting for upload, as well! :D
