This was a third day of some decent sky along the waters edge. Little bit of wind also produced some nice wave action which is always thrilling to witness (at least for a prairie boy)

Apparently that word means the warmth of the sun in the winter. As glorious as that feeling is, it pales in comparison to the delight experienced in witnessing this scene. I have lost count of the innumerable times I have stood here and photographed this landscape and yet simply cannot wait to revisit and recapture magical moments like this for as long as I can.
Also wanted to share the good news I have launched a Winter Wonderland workshop for Yosemite National Park.
I drove home from a triple-digit temp Southern Utah road trip on Tuesday and I'm heading out on another adventure later today. Before I leave, I wanted to share this photo from Monday evening. The day started with a cop waking me up at 3 AM with a flashlight in my face and telling me I had to move my camp. The temperature that day topped out at around 108 F. It ended with this. Life is weird and amazing. Don't forget to slow down and soak it in.

"Getting up close to a particular shadow element is every bit as important as witnessing it and relating to it. This is often quite an emotionally rocky ride, especially given that we may find ourselves without our usual adult skills, at least for a time, because the wounded child in us has surfaced to such a degree that we are looking through those eyes and feeling those feelings. The key is to get as close as possible to that part of ourselves without getting lost in that old worldview, staying emotionally raw even as we name and illuminate what is occuring." -Robert Masters
The ocean moves in to cover what it left empty hours ago as a storm makes its final stand. A lone cloud hovers above the ocean poised and balanced for what will next arise.

He stands on the sandstone ledge at the canyon edge, legs braced, photographing the sunset. She sits beside him, her center of gravity lower, more stable. They witness a daily event, an event now seldom noticed by the multitude.
In the late afternoon incredible light greeting in the Ferret Valley inside Larches wood at the foot of majestic Mont Blanc.
Unforgettable.
Nel tardo pomeriggio, Incredibile il saluto di luce ricevuto nel Lariceto della Val Ferret, ai piedi del massiccio del Monte Bianco.
Indimenticabile !

One of the spectacular sunsets I was fortunate to witness and capture at Bunbury, Western Australia. This particular vantage point provided the lighthouse as a focal point and some backwash from the retreating waves.
Witnessed a great sunset on the beaches of santa cruz. One of the most photographed feature on the California Coast Line.
...clear case of stress before havin a vacation. =)

Another 2 photographs from the valley and time are in my landscape set.
We witnessed some of the most stunning fog layers on the Central Coast over Christmas break - great sheets of moisture draping the land and hillsides, glowing white with sideways sunlight in the morning. Here, at that bend in the road when entering Cayucos from the north.

Sunset in Plutonia
My Interplanetary Memories
Interplanetary Travel
I was starting to relax and enjoy the moment in front of a magnificent sunset view on the planet Plutonia. I remember feeling very lucky when I took this photo. Actually, I was lucky. I was the first person to be chosen for interplanetary travel on planet Earth. And this made me feel lucky and privileged. I saw the depths of space that no human had ever seen before. I have set foot on planets suitable for life, where no human has ever set foot before. I witnessed unique landscapes of space that no human had ever seen. I became the first human and even the first earth creature to be able to get this far from the earth. I say Earth creature, because a cat sent into space before me was the first creature to travel to the furthest point from Earth and return. I went hundreds of times further than that cat went in space. And that made me unique. The cat that was sent into space was able to return to earth. The space cat must still be living on earth. Definitely a lucky cat. To be selected for a space mission among thousands of cats and to be able to successfully complete this mission and return to planet earth. I didn't know whether it was a luckier situation to be selected for a space mission or to be able to return to Earth. I guess it's not a very lucky situation unless you can go back to the world.
I still have an infinite distance to go. I'm tired and weary. My excitement is more than less than my initial excitement. My thoughts are quite different from when I first embarked on this space journey. At first, my thoughts were busy with the exploration of new planets that I was going to do, while my current thoughts are purely about myself. I keep asking myself. I keep arguing with myself about the thought of returning to Earth. I still don't know what to decide.

Spent a week in the centre of Australia, following many reports of thousands of budgies breeding around town. And boy we were not disappointed!
After very good Summer rainfall earlier in the year, the usually red centre was green with new growth & plenty of water about. This presents perfect conditions for budgies to go into a breeding boom - an abundance of seeding grasses & plenty of water to raise several broods of multiple chicks!
And they were EVERYWHERE!
Every spot we visited that had hollow bearing trees, was chockers full of breeding budgies. Many trees had every hollow occupied - some hollows even had multiple pairs sharing!
It was an incredible experience to see so many thousands of budgies all over Alice Springs & surrounds, & witnessing such an amazing breeding event.
I've not reached the research part of my project yet, so it feels odd to share this without doing my homework, but here it is anyway.

Its a real shock when you first witness this , a giant cruise liner making its way down the Canale della Giudecca separating the main island with Giudecca bringing in a new influx of tourists to the city . This fragile old city having to accommodate all these giant vessels in its near vicinity , the scale between the two looks terrifying , the impact of the modern world with its mass tourism seems daunting .
The Doges Palace is on the left with the columns with the Lion of St. Mark the symbol of the city and St. Theodore the first patron saint of the city .
This is early in the morning , the start of yet another day before the masses arrive , the only people about are the street cleaners who sweep the this public square daily and the odd photographer trying to get some early morning captures .
Piazzetta St. Marco

Have you ever wondered how the sandstone around the Colorado Plateau gets all those crazy colors? For those of us who are used to "normal" earthly scenery the place looks like some kind of alien world. Well it turns out those colors actually are alien - they are transported from another galaxy and beamed down into this formation, which apparently serves as some sort of conduit. The colors are then dispersed through underground channels throughout the Colorado Plateau. And I got to witness this amazing phenomenon...that's my story and I'm sticking to it !
Finally got around to processing this shot from an afternoon I spent with the immortal Mike Jones and another flickr photographer, Val Guzman, who is an old friend from back in Chicago and was visiting with his family

Whirling Dervishes, Sema Seb-i Arus, The Wedding Day
Sema is part of the inspiration of Mevlana Celaleddin-i Rumi as well as of Turkish custom, history, beliefs and culture. It is what we do as a form of remembrance of God.
From a scientific viewpoint we witness that contemporary science definitely confirms that the fundamental condition of our existence is to revolve. There is no object, no being which does not revolve and the shared similarity among beings is the revolution of the electrons, protons and neutrons in the atoms, which constitute the structure of each of them. As a consequence of this similarity, everything revolves and man carries on his live, his very existence by means of the revolution in the atoms, structural stones of his body, by the revolution of his blood, by his coming from the earth and return to it, by his revolving with earth itself.
However, all of these are natural, unconscious revolutions. But man is the possessor of a mind and intelligence which distinguishes him from and makes him superior to other beings. Thus the "whirling dervish" or Semazen causes the mind to participate in the shared similarity and revolution of all other beings… Otherwise, the Sema ceremony represents a mystical journey of man's spiritual ascent through mind and love to "Perfect". Turning towards the truth, his growth through love, desert his ego, find the truth and arrive to the "Perfect", then he return from this spiritual journey as a man who reached maturity and a greater perfection, so as to love and to be of service to the whole of creation, to all creatures without discrimination of believes, races, classes and nations.
I've witnessed Sparrowhawks bathing many times before, but, usually from the side of a pond or stream. But, this one dived into the middle of my garden pond and did a fairly good impression of a duck. Finally climbing out onto a Lilly pad before flying off.
