PTM 52 -- Beauty in the everyday details.
A messy braid at the end of the school day...unexpected beauty.
First comes the picking; about 2 hours. Then the sorting; another 3 hours. Then the fun part; the braiding; about 3 hours. I braid it fresh to get the tight braids.
After I was dropped off at my hotel Sunday afternoon in Madison, Tennesee (on a Jon interview in '07), I put on my comfortable clothes and headed out to see if I could shoot some stuff under cloud-cover.
I liked the rope bindings on the flagpole just outside the hotel entrance.
It's hard to focus digicams. This one came out okay, with the rope closest to the lens actually in focus.
Tricky, that.

This is a different perspective of the same stream shown in the previous photo (Braided Stream -1). The braiding is not as obvious here, but the size of the boulders the stream transports during higher flow can be seen. The edge of the Katla Glacier can be seen in the upper left. Middle-ground, dark ridges would appear to be moraines, however, they are cored by blocks of ice and covered with ash.
This braided stream is the effluent from part of the Katla Glacier seen in previous photos. The braided characteristic comes from the change in flow volume and velocity from peak melting of the glacier during the summer to less melting and flow as the weather becomes cooler. As a result of its higher flow in summer, the stream is able to transport coarser material, such as coarse gravel, cobbles and boulders. When flow diminished, the coarse sediment is dropped and the stream develops multiple channels through the debris. Iceland.

Have a bit of an obsession of putting my hair in a side french braid. Since seeing Jessica Simpson with the do, I had to try. I remember back in eighth grade, my friend Maria and I would have our hair in french braids, a french manicure...while drinking our coffee before school (all in uniform, navy and white plaid skirts with our cardigans). We were such girlie girls. We still are but back then we were without a care. Good times.
