There are painters who must,
having found the place, must,
repaint it, compelled to repeat it,
each a variant, yet always the same,
always different
I awake to a perspective that is wide,
always differentiated from the prior,
always almost similar, but never with
the same exactitude, differing attitude,
same longitude, identical latitude,
always different
horizon distanced, in all ways a view
encompassing, duality near, far distant,
harmoniously, eyes open, magnetized
to wake before 6am by the suns modesty,
first light, first clarity, a curtain risen, yet,
always different
am I so blessed or thus cursed, for the urge
to disclaim and ode, compose and thus self-
decompose, analyze, reflect, slice apart, needing
the comprehensive understanding this me/place
scripts the raw appreciation, daily differentiated
always the same
this peaceful venue seizures, chest calmly
pounding at the insistence it commands,
the price I must pay for the prize to praise,
to sing, weep, reward restful sleep with lyrics
eked out, pouring, unsustainable yet finished,
always different
a single May Iris, returns, born from a torrential,
thunder, lightning, sky mayhem, rises by a sundial
greets midst a planted clump, upright rises, lavender,
in a majestic solitary, absent but a day prior, yet mine eyes
failed to witness its discernible emerging birthing creation,
always different,
always the same
here, I am Iris too, always the same, a day aged,
but the differences minute but stolid actualized,
this overnight sensation, my body’s restoration,
what I visualize, indivisible, now visible, realized,
miracle of continuity, unchanging chained change,
always different ,
always the same
wonder, am I more blessed, or a s~lightly cursed being,
my breath restored, wet eyes full brimming, changed,
revived but always modified, a newer old man, whose
sum total always a different number, but in sequential,
compelled to confess, no understanding of this miracle,
always the same,
always different,
this daily visionary miracle

The sun had softened the snow and our feet were now sinking in where once we had left only point marks. The going was slow but steady and we weaved our way back over the plateau toward the cave.
One last hill before we hit the upper plateau and then it was a flat traverse to the point right below our cave. But that last hill was really soft. Step by step we inched our weary bodies up crossing left and then right to avoid a straight up ascent.
My head just popped up to a point where I saw the peak of Mt Cook and the full moon. Suddenly I had found a new burst of energy. I needed to get this on camera. I picked up the pace trying to get Rod to do the same. "You've got to see this!" Obviously he wasn't as keen as I was and at this point I thought I may have had an ice axe hurtling my way.
I finally rounded the top of the hill to see this amazing scene. 11 hours after leaving camp we were returning and the sunset seemed to herald our triumphant home coming. What an amazing day!
Now...onward to melt some drinking water because I am absolutely parched!
"Portrait of Shoshone."
“In the Tetons, two bull moose seem to get all of the attention: Hoback and Shoshone. There are several other majestic bulls, but over the past couple of years, the dynamic duo has become the stars of the show. Both are stunningly large and relatively “dependable” subjects. There are times, especially early and late in the season, when you might see them together, as they share much of the same territory. Over a period of three or four years of photographing them, I can suggest they enjoy each other’s company. During the heat of the rut, however, they can become mortal enemies!” By Mike R. Jackson www.bestofthetetons.com
Moose of Grand Teton
Moose are the largest member of the deer family and love cold weather. They frequent marshy meadows and edges of lakes and streams. About 800 Moose inhabit the southern part of Yellowstone, Grand Teton National Park and surrounding national forests. Moose are most heavily concentrated in Grand Teton Park.
To keep from sinking in mud while feeding, as the animal lowers its foot, a large dewclaw spreads to better support the weight. Similarly, the odd-looking crook of the hind leg allows a Moose to pull the leg straight up, more easily releasing it from deep, sucking mud.
Bull Moose lose their antlers anytime between December and March. Most of the Moose drop them in January. Immature bulls may not shed their antlers for the winter but retain them until the following spring. Female Moose do not have antlers.
A new set of antlers begin to grow the following spring, nourished by the covering of furry skin known as velvet. They take three to five months to develop fully – the velvet is then scraped and rubbed off against bushes and branches. The antlers are then ready for battle. Generally, each set of antlers will be larger than the one before.
Birds, carnivores, and rodents eat dropped antlers as they are full of protein and Moose themselves will eat antler velvet for the nutrients.
Take note—cow Moose with young can be particularly dangerous.

Same shooting position as yesterday's posting. The left edge of this photo is the right edge of that photo.
I increased the saturation of red, but minimized its luminance. I maxed out the saturation of blue and maxed out its luminance. Also did some slider gymnastics: maxed out shadows, maxed out contrast, and increased brightness to 0.34; all in Photos for Mac OS.
Ditto on everything else from yesterday's posting.

Same sunset as the photo I posted a few days ago, but this time in a 30 sec exposure to streak the clouds.
Natural Arch at Nachsholim beach
This time stitched out of five photographs taken with GFX100s. I am a bit undecided between the stitched and the triptych. Two different approaches.
Mi amor peludo, me has enseñado el valor del compromiso, me siento inmensamente feliz cuando estoy contigo; te quiero a mi lado porque mi vida es inconmesurablemente mejor, nuestro amor es incondicional, y porque cada día me enseñas algo nuevo y diferente.
Me muestras amorosamente y agradeces un paseo por corto que éste sea. Me has acostumbrado a vivir entre un caos de pelos y juguetes. La vida no sería lo mismo sin tí, preciosa!
Mon amour poilu, tu m'as appris la valeur de l'engagement, je me sens immensément heureux quand je suis avec toi; Je t'aime à mes côtés parce que ma vie est infiniment meilleure, notre amour est inconditionnel et que chaque jour tu m'apprends quelque chose de nouveau et de différent.
Tu me montres avec amour et merci pour cette petite promenade. Vous m'avez habitué à vivre au milieu d'un chaos de cheveux et de jouets. La vie ne serait pas la même sans vous, précieux!
My hairy love, you have taught me the value of commitment, I feel immensely happy when I am with you; I love you by my side because my life is immeasurably better, our love is unconditional, and because every day you teach me something new and different.
You show me lovingly and thank you for a short walk that it is. You have accustomed me to living amid a chaos of hair and toys. Life would not be the same without you, precious!
Mio amore peloso, mi hai insegnato il valore dell'impegno, mi sento immensamente felice quando sono con te; Ti amo al mio fianco perché la mia vita è incommensurabilmente migliore, il nostro amore è incondizionato, e perché ogni giorno mi insegni qualcosa di nuovo e diverso.
Mi fai vedere amorevolmente e ti ringrazio per una breve passeggiata che è. Mi hai abituato a vivere in mezzo a un caos di capelli e giocattoli. La vita non sarebbe la stessa senza di te, preziosa!

HSS - Went back to Red Bridge yesterday and took a shot that matched one that I took in the spring. Thought it would be a fun composite.
This is the same woman from my post So This is Love in case you missed the post. She is a Ukrainian now living in California with her husband and four young children. I was able to get some candid photos of them recently at a beach in La Jolla, Ca. I approached them afterwards and they shared their contact info with me. She was delighted to received several photos I took and has requested more! This scene is the Scripps Pier that I went that day to photograph when I came upon them.
This is the same whooping crane that was in a photo posted back in December. I saw it again, several days later, and this time it was way too close to the county road. This is at 200mm.
Burnt Meadow, Brownfield, Maine.
I don't know, I tried to take some foliage shots today at Burnt Meadow in Brownfield and they all turned out horrible.
I used two different cameras and the photos shot with both showed the same effect, the foliage is all fuzzy and distorted, maybe it was because of the harsh sunlight, I just don't know.
I apologize, my foliage photos are usually much better than this, I can't explain it !
Frosty same view different day.

Surrealism had a great effect on me because then I realised that the imagery in my mind wasn't insanity. Surrealism to me is reality.

An afternoon in the pub.
It makes a trip into Wellington for some groceries a bit more interesting.

Sorry guys, I can't make my mind up so here is a series of dragonfly images I took in my garden. As you can see, it is the same common darter on a garden sculpture but turning just a couple of inches one way or another gave me these different backgrounds.
SAME SAME BUT DIFFERENT
