I share another pic taken from Steptoe Butte near Colfax in Washington State. I don't know how many pics I took but many. For me this is a very special place I was happy to revisit after a few years.
Une autre photo de ma visite dans cette region de l'état de Washington. Un vrai plaisir de revoir ces belles collines vertes.
Presser L pour voir les détails sur la pierre de tuffeau.

the macromonday theme for today (12/26) is "Redux 2016--My Favorite Theme of the Year "-- revisit one of the 52 themes-- this is a possibility for "photowalk textures"
I went back to redo this. Arrived exactly same spot before the sunrise. But the weather was not cooperating. The clouds were all stacked together, and it was still snowing on the mountain. For the moment I was about to give up. The sun came out on my back, clouds all cleared up, and the moon came out. I quickly snapped the photo below. Just in another 30 mins, the weather went back to it was and started snowing heavily. I quickly descended the mountain.
As I was revisiting the other courtyard, I could not withstand to take a few photos of this one (and another) again ;-)
I don't get bored, there are so many perspectives to be discovered.
Courtyard XIX
A view of the BWC (Big Wicked City) looking north to the Tanguy plaza. I wanted to have some trains running, but it is really tough to find a train picture that is not approaching or traveling away from the viewer. Perhaps I will make the image from scratch at a later date and revisit this image.
Reworked the data from John Misti taken in 2005, Arizona. A mighty fireworks about 40 million light years away from the Earth.
Inspired by all of the beautiful seascapes that BlueberryAsh has been posting I decided to go back and revisit my Phillip Island images to make sure I hadn't missed any good ones. This is actually a combination of two images taken of this scene, one had the nice spray, the other had the nice white semi-circular wash on the sand. I like the combined version and hope you do too, taken near Cadillac Canyon, Phillip Island.
Visiting some old shots of Iceland. Here's the beautiful Goðafoss. I'm thinking of a return trip this summer!
Cat lovers often are the kindest and gentlest people. I met this older couple in Brooklyn and this is their cat, Star. There was an older woman who lives with Star who told me she was very concerned because Star is quite old and she had her father and her father was showing the same kinds of behaviors before he passed away.
There's a really strong connection between pet lovers when we talk about loss of a pet. It really is something that almost surpasses what humans are capable of enduring...the suffering we feel when a pet we love and cherishes dies. I could feel the woman I spoke to preparing for this mentally but also having that internal conflict of wanting to enjoy the time she had left without the depression already setting in.
I talked to this human for quite a bit and was told about how Star's father cat was so smart that he used the toilet instead of the litter box and how Star has to have special food and treats. We cat lovers pick up on little nuances particular to each personality and we treasure them as if they are individual gifts (because they are!)
Anyway, I couldn't tell if the man in the photo was the woman's son or partner. I had the impression when I was speaking to her below where the man and Star were standing in this shot that she was the kind of human that appreciated a conversation more than a photograph and it was just nice to have that moment. Sometimes, you have to remind yourself that there are other ways of collecting memories and sometimes words (too many words in this case as I'm rambling) can serve a purpose. I've made a note to revisit the image of her in my mind mentally but, within that image, is not merely a woman but a woman who loves cats and all those felines she's adored who've adored her back.
Have a nice Caturday.
