It's simple, really, the making of a rainbow -- just some sunlight and some water. Simple. But easy...not in the least. It's reflection, refraction, dispersion -- phenomenal meteorological science; Mother Nature's fierce magic! It requires great skill, effort, practice, patience. Simple, but not easy. And, oh, how beautifully she shines when all of that energy synchronizes! :)
Thank you, Mother Nature, for showing off a fantastically dreamy rainbow over the Rainbow Mountains! Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, NV
Big Horn sheep form an impenetrable wall and charge collectively at first I though me. Being half way up a mountain in knee deep snow for a moment I thought that was it. I will be killed by sheep. As it turned out there was a coyote behind me that the sheep were attacking to defend the young.

Autumn views from Blue Ridge Parkway, part I 🍁
Recently, on a road trip to the Northeast for family matters, we had the opportunity to squeeze in a small diversion to the Blue Ridge Parkway on our trip back West. We got to trek the Plateau region of the Parkway, smack dab in the heart of Appalachia, and in the midst of the fall foliage season! ⛰
The day was off to a disappointing start with a skunked sunrise and a completely overcast sky (and not the kind of overcast that still has texture to it, of course ). So we walked a few trails, admired the many scenic overlook views, wandered into a small mountain town for lunch, and drove through one tree tunnel after the next painted with shades of reds, oranges, and yellows. 🍂
By late afternoon it was a completely different day, much to our delight. The clouds broke up and golden sunlight glazed across the landscape, bringing forth all the vivid color of autumn’s fingerprints on the mountains.

This morning, the Rainbow Mountains took the rare opportunity to hit the snooze button, roll back over under a fresh blanket of snow, and nuzzle up against the sleepy fluffs of clouds -- without the faintest idea of the beauty of it all. :)

From last week, mid-deep-freeze in Central Texas. I took a few mini-adventures around the yard while we passed the time in between huddling around a tiny propane heater and waiting for power to come back on. Clearly, ice-glazed things became my muse, forcing me to slow down and take in all of the small details of the freeze, and leaving me with beautiful souvenirs of what was otherwise a terrible experience. Nothing like Mother Nature to keep you humble about basic necessities. All’s well that ends well. 😅❄️

A Bull Elk watches as his harem crossed the snake river to head into the woods for the day. I was after this particular image and after spending several mornings waiting for the herd to cross, they finally obliged. The lead female comes and assess the situation and once its ok they all cross.
