A little information on "Spirit Houses" . . . The graves are covered with stones, dug out from the rocky terrain and a blanket is placed over it as it is meant to warm and comfort the soul. Wooden spirit houses that families have built are then placed over the grave. Some are more elaborate than others and have glass windows and even porches and cupolas. The size of the houses is often determined by the importance of the person in the community or by the extent of the grief of the family remaining. The spirit houses are painted in the family colors and married couples often painted theirs as a combination of the colors of both families. Little houses built inside a house represent the graves of a mother and her child who passed away together. Prized possessions, such as hunting knives, guns and books were placed in the spirit houses as well. What a loving tradition.

The great musician

Vivid Sydney over now for another year. Already looking forward to it.

Decided to play a bit in PS, just turned on the show 45 minutes early with still a bit of light left in the sky.

The advantages to set up in the light and don't move the tripod anymore.

Thanks for looking and have a great weekend.

I am in desperate need of some color, and I still have several weeks to wait until the first of our wildflower's will open. Snow is slowly melting around our cabin, a few robins have arrived, and temperatures are promised to reach into the fifties by next week. Meanwhile I'll be dreaming of flower time . . .

Another digital manipulation of a photo of stacked banquet tables.

Rhododendron

Deep in the Alaskan forest, a frost covered cottage awaits spring.

This image is a composite of two. I photographed the eagle on an overcast dullish gray sky day. So I changed the background using another image.

Digital art produced from a photograph of an eye.

Surrounded by snow - my mind takes me back to last summer, and this very special place in Alaska's boreal forest. The table may be heaped with snow now - but in two months it will re-emerge, and Doc. Doolittle and I will be there to witness the first signs of summer.
