Another shot of my 'Multi-blue' Clematis. I decided to turn it into a B&W shot to highlight all the sharp edges and "Venus Flytrap-like" quality.

Capitol Reef National Park
Capitol Reef National Park is a United States National Park, in south-central Utah. It is 100 miles (160 km) long but fairly narrow. The park, established in 1971, preserves 241,904 acres (978.95 km2; 377.97 sq mi) and is open all year, although May through September are the most popular months.
Called "Wayne Wonderland" in the 1920s by local boosters Ephraim P. Pectol and Joseph S. Hickman, Capitol Reef National Park protects colorful canyons, ridges, buttes, and monoliths. About 75 mi (121 km) of the long up-thrust called the Waterpocket Fold, a rugged spine extending from Thousand Lake Mountain to Lake Powell, is preserved within the park. "Capitol Reef" is the name of an especially rugged and spectacular segment of the Waterpocket Fold near the Fremont River. The area was named for a line of white domes and cliffs of Navajo Sandstone, each of which looks somewhat like the United States Capitol building, that run from the Fremont River to Pleasant Creek on the Waterpocket Fold. The local word reef referred to any rocky barrier to travel. Easy road access came with the construction in 1962 of State Route 24 through the Fremont River Canyon.

Thomas Satterwhite Noble - (1835- 1907)
The Price of Blood - 1868
One rather weighty painting in the collection of the Morris is titled The Price of Blood (1868). Painted by the notable Thomas Satterwhite Noble (1835-1907), this multi-figure scene depicts a slave owner selling his mixed-race son into slavery. The slave owner sits on the right side of the picture, reclining easily in his chair, wrapped snugly in a smoking jacket. He casts a side-long but unashamed glance at the viewer, as if to say ‘mind your business.’ The slave trader stands in shadow behind the table, reading documents over a pile of money to be made from the sale. Engrossed in his paperwork, he can’t even meet the viewer’s eyes. On the left side of the picture, stands the son, just sold off into a life of endless imprisonment. His contrapposto pose dignifies him, but he looks out of the picture plane and into his doomed future with a furrowed brow. He holds his straw sun hat in hand and his feet are bare. Clearly, his fate is sealed.

Southern Stories
One of the distinguishing features of the culture of the region is the time-honored tradition of storytelling. The Southern narrative is riddled with complexities and encompasses an extraordinary range of archetypal images and subjects, such as the Southern belle, the African American laborer, and picturesque, sprawling scenes of the rural South.
Great Southern storytelling is seen in a variety of images in the museum’s collection, including Kentuckian Thomas Satterwhite Noble’s The Price of Blood, which reflects both the artist’s sound academic training and his abhorrence of slavery, and Russell Smith’s Baptism in Virginia, which illustrates the importance of religion to a community.

Located on the Riverwalk in historic downtown Augusta, the Morris Museum of Art, the oldest museum in the country that is specifically devoted to the art and artists of the American South, is noted for its multifaceted permanent collection of 5,000 works of art and a rich variety of continually changing special exhibitions and public programs. The Morris is dedicated to the continued interpretation of the culture of the South in all its forms.
Located in historic downtown Augusta, Georgia, on the Savannah River, the Morris has preserved the history and culture of the South for more than twenty-five years. The museum’s permanent collection, dating from the late eighteenth century to the present, is arranged thematically in ten galleries. In addition, the museum hosts temporary special exhibitions throughout the year as well as a rich array of public programs and events for children, families, and art lovers of all ages.
The Morris Museum’s permanent collection was established in 1989 with the purchase of 230 paintings from Dr. Robert Powell Coggins, a pioneering collector of Southern art. That acquisition set the museum’s mission and identified its special interest in the art and artists of the American South. When it opened in 1992, the collection included approximately 700 objects, half of them paintings. Today, the museum’s collection includes 5,000 works of art that represent fifteen states and the District of Columbia. In recent years, its traditional strengths in paintings and works on paper have been significantly enhanced by the creation of important collections of photographs, folk art, and studio art glass. The Morris Museum’s Center for the Study of Southern Art, a comprehensive research library, has also grown to include 20,000 volumes, 28,000 vertical files, 1,350 media resources, and a rich archive that includes artists’ letters and papers.
