Your dreams are right in front you, so close you can almost touch them. So many paths to choose to get there, mystery and fear behind each door. Will it aid your journey, or will adversity need to be overcome? Or will fear of failure, or possibly fear of success, keep you from going past the next door?
Pathway, Craters of the Moon National Monument, Central Idaho.
It was challenging doing photography in Craters of the Moon. The landscape is volcanic rock of varying texture that does an absolutely superb job of radiating heat back up from the ground. Navigation in the backcountry can be challenging, as there are not many landmarks from which to get your bearings.
This image is of one of the paved walkways in the main part of the monument. A mile or so south is the backcountry trail where you can find true adventure - just make sure to bring enough water for your stay, as there is no water to pump once you're out there.
Acknowledgement: The lovely reference photo used to complete this work was taken by my best buddy, I think he’d like to keep his anonymity; so I’ll address him by his nickname among our group of friends. So if anyone enjoys this painting it would simply not have been possible without my awesome friend the Dj Cube. Thanks for all your support buddy, I’m really grateful to have ya around ^- ^ Please do take the time to enjoy the original reference photo as well as the painting which you can see here

And with that, this painting was a really fun project. I’ve always wanted to do something in the subject of autumn, and I really like the results. I had a chance to work with iron oxides almost exclusively. Every mixture in the picture save for the sky, the shadow colour and the pavement is an iron based paint, or has one in the mixture. This allowed me to create some really lovely dull colors without overpowering the painting with high chroma. I think this really makes the sky sparkle as they’re high chroma diluted coats of Quinacridone Violet [Beta Quinacridone] (PV19) Pyrrol Scarlet (PR255) & Hansa Yellow Deep (PY65).
In tints PV19 undergoes a massive shift from Magenta to red violet, as the pyrrol scarlet lightens it shifts from an aggressive and rich Orange red to a subtle slightly cooler salmon pink.
All the lovely dark and subtle greens were also possible due to the iron oxides. The grass is a velvety blend of Iron blue [Prussian Blue] (PB27) & Yellow Ochre [PY43], some patches of it have Cerulean Blue (PB36) Instead of Iron blue.The Tree on the right was conveyed with Iron blue (PB27) & Burnt Sienna (PBr7). The shrub on the left is conveyed with a similar mixture, but instead of burnt sienna, it is Raw Umber (PBr7); & finally (if I recall correctly) the shrubs behind the pavement in the background are Iron blue (pB27) With Burnt Umber (Have I failed to mention how wonderful Iron blue is for mixing dark natural greens? Meanwhile Cerulean being a cobalt based pigment has a lighter and more powdery texture. Both do their respective jobs well)
The house windows are a light coating of Iron blue, the door a mixure of raw umber with a touch of ultramarine blue to dull it down. The house is raw umber (one section with abit of ochre) the wooden panels on the house are burnt umber. The fence is also a mixture of raw umber and yellow ochre. The Dirt pathway is Raw umber with Burnt Sienna.
The pavement is one of my favorite mixes, Cobalt Teal Blue (PG50) & Pyrrol Scarlet (pr255). It creates a wonderful silvery gray. The shadow tone is PB36 Cerulean blue & Pyrrol scarlet, this is a lovely near neutral which you can get a purple or stone blue bias from. I went closer to the cool cerulean, and it was a perfect mix for the cool shadows. The brances you see on the trees are a mixture of burnt umber with venetian red (PR101).
Finally and most importantly, the main focus of the painting, the tree leaves are PR101 (Venetian red) PBr7 (Burnt Sienna) & PY43 (Yellow Ochre) This trio creates a fantastic moderately chromatic range of oranges. I think they did a wonderful job at conveying the autumn element in the picture.
Overall I’m very satisfied with this project. I didn’t capture the lovely deep shadow contrast in the original reference photo unfortunately… And an oversight lead to a very washed out looking second house (Watercolor has to be done in layers. And because the hiding power isn’t very high especially in tints, all I could do was layer a light coat of the building colors, lest I rewet and bleed the tree leaves all over the place into a bloody mess) Other than that, I think there is a wonderful harmony in this painting. The grass does a wonderful job conveying sunlight at dusk, and the greenery has a lovely duotone texture thanks to the iron oxides. The sky is wonderfully luminescent, and the trees have that powerful autumn glow. Thanks again to my fantastic friend Cube for sharing his photos with us.

Jim Lambie's Album Pathway in the New Barrowland Park in Glasgow. It includes every band which played at the Barrowland between 1983 and 2013. I've focused on the Fields Of The Nephilim gig on 27th September 1990 because I was there and the next day was my first day at University.
This is one of the many pathways at Camp W summer camp. The camp has been in existence for over 40 years - just think of all the kids that have walked this path and the songs that have filled the woods. Our kids have attended camp off and on since we moved to the area 16 years ago. What wonderful memories and friendships have been formed here!

Clearly you can opt to have your family/friend's graves strimmed with a pathway to reach it through the other wild patches.
The uniform headstones on the right are commemorative of world war I navymen. 3 to a headstone.
Our Daily Challenge ... pathway
The last section of the path along the surfs edge to the point is all that is left in it's original condition. Used only by surfers and people like me who would prefer to be down near the beach on an almost deserted track with my dogs than the concrete 'roadway" which today was crowded with people and bikes.
After seeing the golden pathway picture I took 2 years ago, it became clear that when zoomed in, it had some motion blur (I had a much cheaper tripod back then).
So I planned a new shoot for it and after 4 weeks I finally good decent light.
Lake Wanaka March 10, 2014 Central Otago, South Island, New Zealand.
We stayed in Wanaka two nights and it was lovely and sunny and very warm... didn't want to head home again!
Lake Wanaka is located in the Otago region of New Zealand, at an altitude of 300 metres. Covering an area of 192 km2 (74 sq mi),[citation needed] it is New Zealand's fourth largest lake, and estimated to be more than 300 m (980 ft) deep. Its name is Māori, a corruption of Oanaka ('The place of Anaka', a local tribal chief).
Wanaka is a town on the lake with which it shares its name.
Lake Wanaka lies at the heart of the Otago Lakes in the lower South Island of New Zealand. The township is situated in a glacier carved basin on the shores of the lake and is the gateway to Mt Aspiring National Park. Lake Hāwea is a 15 minute drive away, en route to the frontier town of Makarora, the last stop before the West Coast Glacier region. To the south is the historic Cardrona Valley, offering an alpine route to neighbouring Queenstown.
At its greatest extent, which is roughly along a north-south axis, the lake is 42 kilometres long. Its widest point, at the southern end, is 10 kilometres. The lake's western shore is lined with high peaks rising to over 2000 metres above sea level. Along the eastern shore the land is also mountainous, but the peaks are somewhat lower.
Wanaka lies in a u-shaped valley formed by glacial erosion during the last ice age, more than 10,000 years ago. It is fed by the Matukituki- and Makarora Rivers, and is the source of the Clutha River. Nearby Lake Hāwea lies in a parallel valley carved by a neighbouring glacier eight kilometres to the east. At their closest point (a rocky ridge called The Neck), the lakes are only 1,000 metres apart.
Numerous small islands (notably Ruby Island, Stevensons Island and Harwich Island) are to be found at the southern end of the lake, with some now serving as ecological sanctuaries, for example for buff weka in case of Stevensons Island. The only flat land around the lake is also to be found here, surrounding the outflow into the Clutha River. The towns of Wanaka and Albert Town are situated here.
