A golden light of sunrise. Air with color and sweet scent. Clouds appeared and dropped dew on my roses. Details became obscure. Seeing no further than my yard . One yard in a vast growing universe. So far my garden path has been mostly smooth. Clouds visit and go ,leaving me a kinder appreciation. Instinctively i know this garden path is shorter now and leads to nothing . We are all walking on a path .
Dollops of mist rise into the crisp morning air from the warmer, rippled and reflecting waters of Price Lake as sunlight strikes the warm autumn colors near the tops of the trees while leaving the trunks and undergrowth in cool shadows, a short hike off the Blue Ridge Parkway, near Blowing Rock, North Carolina.
This is one of those shots, I expect, which resonates much more with me as the photographer than with most viewers. A couple of weeks ago we had made a one-night run to the Blue Ridge Mountains for a series of short hikes seeking colorful fall scenes, and this morning before sunrise we had made the quick jaunt from the Parkway around Price Lake hoping to catch a scene including Grandfather Mountain lit with alpenglow rising over the lake with some clouds above and autumn interest in the foreground. As it turned out, the alpenglow on Grandfather was very nice, but the skies stayed completely clear and my efforts with the foreground fell short as well, so I started paying closer attention to the reflections near the shore as the morning sun first started to strike the brilliant fall leaves higher in the trees in one area. No doubt reflections of trees in gently rippled lakes are common, and most always pleasing, but something about the light and shadow, the warm and cool, and how the mist rose in little clumps struck me here, and I thought it made for something of an interesting abstract.
One other note: If you look closely, you will see a few leaves floating through the scene like little boats, and one in particular near the center right of the image. Tempting as it was to clone them out, I enjoyed watching them gently make their way across the shallows in the soft breeze and decided that they added just a little something to the photograph as they did to my enjoyment in being there.
Thanks for viewing!

David Tremlett - 3 Drawing Rooms (Ikon Gallery, Birmingham, 4 December 2013 — 21 April 2014)
British artist David Tremlett transforms the second floor of the Ikon Gallery with his colourful geometric wall drawings. An unexpected and deliciously tactile looking bonus are the vast engine grease panels on the walls of the room connecting the two seen here. A great symbiosis of art and architecture. Highly recommended if you have a chance to see it.

I'm trying to learn how to draw animals and so I started drawing a cheetah! one because it has a small muzzle and those are easy starters. This is my second drawing of a cheetah ever so it's not bad! but my first one is trial and error on the one sheet of paper i have, and when I draw for the second time i give myself notes on what to work on (which is a lot on this one) and so i draw a few pictures, note myself, and work on what I need to work on. please! i need feedback! :D how do you think i did for my second try?
