Dunes, Soft Light. © Copyright 2022 G Dan Mitchell.
Details of sand dunes in soft evening light, Death Valley Naitonal Park.
Sand dunes are always fascinating subjects, both for their appearance as part of the larger landscape and because they contain almost infinite varieties of smaller subjects, textures, colors, and variations in light. I made a wild guess recently that I’ve probably been to Death Valley perhaps twenty-five times. You’d think that I might start to tire of the dunes or run out of things to photograph there… but there’s not sign of this happening.
We went to these dunes late in the day and had them entirely to ourselves. The light was challenging, as clouds were building to the west. As the clouds moved the light increased and decreased, but overall it remained quite soft the entire time. But this just provides another variation on how we can photograph this subject, and the soft light lets me reveal some subtle details that can be lost in brighter conditions. I made some post-processing choices here that highlight the variations in light and the soft forms of the dunes.

I spent some of my day off at the Broadmoor wildlife sanctuary (Mass Audubon) in Natick. What a relaxing spot to go for walk. This particular location particular caught my attention: An old dam now saturated with leaves. Immerse yourself in the photo and your troubles will go away, guaranteed! (for a few seconds at least, LOL)
Enjoy the weekend everyone!
This is along a beautiful walk that I take now almost daily. I never get tired of its beauty and seeing this orchard in all of the different seasons. :)

When I was younger this was my favourite candle holder in the house because I liked the idea of there being an infinite number of candles in just a little glass enclosure. It made me think that if a little glass could hold infinite possibilities, so could a little person, and I was little, so I could hold infinite possibilities. Though not a perfect syllogism, it was pretty impressive reasoning for a young child. It has a smaller counterpart with a dish for wax melts above it, and these two holders are the only two I use tea-lights in nowadays, for precisely the inspiring logic that I liked when I was a child. They remind me, in their small way, that I am infinite, or at least my mind is.

The Werregarenstraatje, a pedestrian street in the center of Ghent, is a graffiti-free zone. Officially, tagging is not permitted, but the practice is tolerated. This free zone was created during the 1995 Ghent Festivities for a graffiti project with a limited number of works on the walls. The street was soon renamed “the graffiti street”.

Love the reflections on this one. Amazing arrangement by the artist. I am posting again... was burried under the pile of picture on flickr
I appreciate the feedback.
“Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.”
― Brené Brown
Yesterday I had a very interesting conversation with my sister and we were discussing why we didn't go to our High School reunions and they were for the opposite reasons. I didn't want to go because I didn't like who I was in High School. It's funny how you can look at someone and see so many wonderful traits that they themselves may miss. Remember this when thinking of your shortcomings and flaws, most people won't see those, they will see the good. Be brave, own your truth and be a beacon for others.
