Upon awakening the first morning while visiting with family down south some fog settled in overnight which later burned away leading to a beautiful sunny Thanksgiving day.
Hope everyone had a good holiday and was as stuffed at the end of the evening as much as your turkey was before being eaten!

I discovered a new dam near Durbanville on Friday afternoon... hidden from view on the top of a hill and in the middle of a canola field!
I stumbled on it quite by accident while I was walking along a farm road looking for promising compositions. I heard some ducks quacking and figured that where there are ducks... there must be water!? :)

The main point is that Second Temple Jews assumed that heaven and earth were intended to overlap and did in fact overlap in certain contexts. Our modern assumption of a split world does not mean that we understand cosmology and they didn’t—much the same way as, just because we’ve invented mechanical clocks, we mustn’t assume that we understand time and the ancients didn’t. The modernist protests are trying to distract our gaze from the pink nakedness of the Enlightenment’s Emperor, strutting down the street.

The two pedestrians walk apart on either side of the crossing, moving in the same direction without crossing paths. They share the same space but not the same moment. There’s no interaction, just parallel movement, which creates a quiet sense of distance between them. The lines in the road don’t just separate the space, they echo that separation between people; close, visible, and yet completely alone in their own direction.

This time of year there are often winds, waves, and patches of fog on Lake Michigan. The two b&w photos that I'm posting today reflect those times.
This morning for a period of about 15 minutes the light and clouds were doing some special things! I therefore was hurrying up or down the road, from side to side to try and capture just a little of the natural beauty that passed in front of my eyes. A joy to be out and to behold - the sky that is not me trying to capture it!!!!
