A tugboat passes through the confluence of the Three Rivers on a beautiful fall morning in Pittsburgh.
Lively bodies of water are always attractive to the eye and invite you to photograph or paint them. Of course, navigating them is another thing entirely. This scene is of the rapids in the Rideau River in Ottawa between Vanier and Strathcona Park. On a sunny summer day, they come alive and shimmer like diamonds. Although the rapids look menacing, the water level is shallow at this location and many people walk across on its rocky bottom even though there are signs warning of danger.
Les eaux vifs sont toujours attrayant à l'œil et vous invitent à les photographier ou les peindre. Bien sûr, les naviguer est tout autre chose. Cette scène est des rapides de la rivière Rideau à Ottawa entre Vanier et le Parc Strathcona . Une journée d'été ensoleillée, les rapides viennent en vie et scintillent comme des diamants. Bien que les rapides ont un air menaçant, le niveau d'eau est peu profonde à cet endroit et beaucoup de gens marche à pied à travers la rivière sur son fond rocheux même s'il y a des panneaux avertissant de danger.
"Navigate by the same star, unwilling to change, and you find yourself not only off-course but lost."

I woke up in the morning before everyone else to go on an extended scouting mission. I arrived around this river just as the morning mists were lifting enough to give me a view into the distance.

both opening prompt and vanishing point for these mostly gestural ink paintings is a quote from artist Alok Hsu Kwang-han –
“the emptiness of the self is the one who can move through the broken heart of the world and feel at home”
the initial impulse to allow the intuition of the moment to guide the brush strokes, as portraits of energy or presencing; a kind of witnessing without accumulation or interference, attunement to murmurations; while occasionally more representational images emerge – as well, entendering – and in the spirit of the initial quotation, everything belongs
Navigating the deserts of Kepler-16b has the ISEE (Interstellar Exoplanet Ekistics) team exploring deep crevices formed from recent sudden storms. The violent storms caused by its two suns dump massive amounts of liquid water within minutes just to have it disappear from the surface almost as fast. It is a planet in constant desert/ monsoon weather but the monsoon only lasts 10min out of a 32 hour day. They have to be careful to not be in the crevice territories during that 10 minutes. Analysis of the monsoon has determined it comes swiftly and unpredictably on the otherwise hot and dry planet.

In the distance, a lone rider sits astride his horse, as they navigate a narrow country road.

Tired, hungry and fed-up. I think that's probably the last time Ludwig asks a complete stranger for directions.

Midnight sun is a natural phenomenon that occurs in the summer months in places north of the Arctic Circle or south of the Antarctic Circle, when the Sun remains visible at the local midnight. When midnight sun is seen in the Arctic, the Sun appears to move from left to right. In Antarctica, the equivalent apparent motion is from right to left. This occurs at latitudes from about 65°44' to 90° north or south, and does not stop exactly at the Arctic Circle or the Antarctic Circle, due to refraction.
The opposite phenomenon, polar night, occurs in winter, when the Sun stays below the horizon throughout the day
This building is called the "Ark" and was built in the mid nineties. It has a vague shiplike shape and the fire escape stairwell which you see in the picture loosely resembles a lighthouse. Canon New FD 135mm f3.5
