I was up early yesterday to pull weeds in my flower bed before it got too hot. Being that I'm seldom up at the crack of dawn, not to mention a procrastinator, I first decided to go over & see what the hayfield looked like at sunrise. The sky was not interesting, so I took some shots of the fence post with some hay bales in the bg instead. While I was there, I noticed a couple different shots that I might have to hop the fence for in the near future (at the risk of being caught trespassing)...
Before & after post processing. This 100+ year-old dairy farm barn and concrete silo (Keetch Family) is in the middle of a small town (St. Charles) in SE Idaho that has grown around it over the decades. Although there is very little overall light pollution in this rural area, there is quite a bit of local light pollution from several surrounding home yard lights, making the barn over lit with a mixture of sodium-vapor (yellow-orange) and mercury-vapor (green) light colors. Here are the corrective steps I took:
• Darken & desaturate the barn/silo via yellow channel
• Increased sky contrast (which reveals the
latent colors in the sky)
• Enhanced the Andromeda Galaxy*
• Reduce barn & silo keystone distortion
*The barn is facing the NE sky, so the core of the Milky Way is behind me.

It’s official! From all the behavioural signs the ospreys on the nest can be no other than our own No-ring and Mrs. And, as you can see from the grid, it is the earliest they have ever arrived. Good weather and tail winds probably helped them on their way. Without satellite tracking there is no way of knowing where they spent their winter. Gambia, Senegal or Mauritania are the most likely countries – anywhere where they can find a tree of their own and a place to fish. One thing is almost certain - they do not meet up in the tropics. They enjoy a singles winter-sun holiday for 7 months of the year and the delights of domesticity for the other 5.

Today, for instance, Mrs. has been nestling down creating a small cup in the middle of the larger nest structure and they have been mating regularly. When not otherwise occupied No-ring has been sitting in full telescope view on a tree just below the nest to keep out of the (very chilly) southerly wind. He has also been trying out other favourite posts, for fishing on the Lake.

Everyday
the Lamp Post
who sees more than I can see,
whispers words of wisdom
to me, and only me.
I lean my head against its pole,
Embrace it with a loving hold,
And while its mysteries unfold
I listen.

THIS WILL BE ON AUCTION! I will post the link on all these photos when the auction goes live...
This is a snippet of a page created by (looking through scans for names). I think her choice of the butterflies over the eyes, almost veil-like, was wonderful. Beautiful piece. :)
Everyone donated their extra pages (a participant dropped) so I made covers and some written content for a book to go on auction in benefit of Robin Whittemore's family. Robin lost her battle with breast cancer in July of this year and her family could use some help with the medical expenses. I encourage everyone in the art community to show their financial support of their fallen sister and help her family cope with what they are dealing with now.
