The Cockscomb (or eastern edge of the Kaibab Uplift) running parallel to Cottonwood Canyon road in southern Utah is a wonderous geologic formation of so many unique colors and textures.

Stripping away the color in this image, I found that the variety of textures, from the thin clouds overhead, through the geologic sandstone formation, into the desert flora, create a visually stunning scene.

Utah's 'Mighty 5' National Parks and the Grand Canyon are definitely the attention grabbers in this region, but do yourself a favor and explore the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. You'll be glad you did!

My dear friend Anke reminded me of this beautiful song - an ageless song.

Chilling in the study and making plans for the evening

Just had to post one more image of my favourite backlit sheep on Bodmin Moor, as the lighting approaching sunset was so good. In tighter for this shot, and she posed beautifully looking directly to camera....probably thinking, what is this idiot crawling towards me doing !!! Awful weather again in Cornwall today.

The new Professor found her barings and settled into School nicely. There were a few things still left to do before the term started officially next week, and many things to consider as she settled into her new role. For now, she pulled out a book - there was material to review.

A new flower for me - the African Lily or Agapanthus. The flower heads are big, full of flowers and rather drooping and shaggy - like a very bad hair day! So I took a few of the small flowers, and used the sunlight streaming through the window.

There'a a window, some bokeh and plenty of textures - so ....

Another study in color grading.

I took this RAW shot 5 years ago and it is technically all wrong. I clearly remember the day since it was one of my first outings with my new Sony camera. Randi with her sharp eye pointed out the interesting patterns on the sand dunes in Malibu and I took this and a few similar shots. I clearly used the wrong aperture, the focus is off and framing is haphazard.

I have come back to this photo a few times over the years, intrigued by the shadows in the sand but not knowing what to do.

Recently, as I am learning more about color theory and color grading techniques, I have taken a swipe at editing this photo in a complementary color scheme. While the raw file is totally lacking color, with typical SoCal grayish sand, ocean and sky, this edit is specifically focused on complimentary orange and blue hues, evoking African sand dunes by the Indian Ocean.

Thank you very much for your views, kind comments and faves.

I just came by for some detective fiction 😊 I like to sit for a bit in the big leather chair, and watch others working hard.

While strolling by the lake, I came upon this Hasidic Jew who allowed me to take a photo of him.
