Waterpocket Fold Terrain. Capitol Reef National Park, Utah. October 22, 2014. © Copyright 2014 G Dan Mitchell - all rights reserved.
Deep erosion gullies below an uplifted rock band empty into the valley below, with rugged terrain extending into the distance
Until a few years ago, although I had heard the term "waterpocket fold" before, I was almost completely unaware of what this geological feature is. Since that time I have visited it several times. On the first occasion I visited the area, but I still did not understand the geology. I "got it" that there was some sort of uplift — the land rising to the west of Capitol Reef was a pretty good clue — but I did not understand or really see any of the connections. I recall stopping at one road side pullout and seeing a sign about it, registering that it is something important, but not really understanding.
On more recent visits the reality of this huge and striking feature has finally sunk in. I began to see it a few years ago on a trip that took we away from main roads and way up on a rocky ridge from which I could look down into the eastern valley and clearly see some of the larger patterns — sinuous lines of angled rock, the valley twisting gently into the distance in the south. On the most recent visit it began to make a lot more sense, as I noticed features like the shadowed cliff band across the center of this photograph, which more or less represents the remaining underside of a layer that long ago continued on up into what today would be the sky. Its edge overhangs the softer material below, though it still erodes into the bottom of the valley. Further to the east in this photograph the impossibly rugged terrain of arid strata continues, eventually rising to a mountain range in the far distance.

Took this shot and then the woman seen came up and scolded me for photographing without permission. Now that I've been disciplined, I imagine it will take me a minutes or possibly a full hour before I shoot a woman in silhouette again.

I folded a lovely rabbit napkin by using the color of Japan!
This is one of the favorite styles of me though it is a very easy way to fold.
My friend and family are always pleased. Especially, the child is very pleased!
All this flickrin' and photoshoppin' is bleedin' into my work world. Just for fun, here's a picture of a protein from an upcoming grant. Its a slice of Green Fluorescent Protein - first isolated from green glowing jellyfish, GFP has revolutionized biotech. You can label a protein or cell with this protein and see its expression through the microscope in a living organism.
The point of this figure is that the large GFP barrel (beige) drives the structure of the green segment - which is the part of the protein that makes the green color (makes sense, eh?). My collaborator calls this fold-drive. Anyways - thought I'd share. I got to play with orton and the ps dodge and burn tweaks. Now instead of spending two hours making one figure, I can spend double that! Yay productivity!
I found a local art shop which carried practically everything an artist would need, including various types of paper. I bought 8 sheets of mulberry tissue paper in green, brown, red and yellow, plus a roll of very thin japanese paper (not sure what it's called). My happiness quotient was off the charts when I found this shop!

I'm making a Japanese folded patchwork bag for a friend so this is the card to go with it. I wanted to keep the front of the card simple so the focal point would be the patchwork design. I heat embossed the black cardstock with the Design Block Flourish (I love that stamp) using clear embossing powder. The black paper on the patchwork is a recycled envelope. Some of the patterned papers are recycled gift wrap and some are tiny scraps left over from other cards. The faux stitching is done with a silver gel pen and black marker. It's a grey, showery day here in Ireland so I'm afraid that the photo is not great.

for those of you who don't know momo is a bizzarre lemur from the cartoon avatar-the last airbender....it was supposed to be white/dark brown but i didn't have the right colors :-(..anyway this model uses diagonal simmetry,22,5 structure and grafts in 2 edges for the color changed strips,fingers and the long tail...the face has been hard to figure out...it's kind of strange how i made the eyes....they are actually a rabbit eared middle point flap which is then tucked inside a pocket....
here is a picture of the original character

This is a substitute for my original shot that I was not particularly happy with. This I think is much more creative.

I haven't shot with this camera lately so I took a few images today. This is the 2nd edition model with the silver struts. Stopped down it takes decent shots for a meniscus style lens. It's fairly worn but a previous owner patched the bellows for any light leak issues. For a late-1800's camera, it's a neat piece of functional history.
