In a sense, prayer begins where expression ends. Thew words that reach our lips are often but waves of an overflowing stream touching the shore...The wave of a song carries the soul to heights which utterable meanings can never reach.
-Abraham Joshua Heschel, Man's Search for God, pg. 39

Borax Lake is a relatively small, hot-spring-fed lake in southeastern Oregon near the Alvord Desert. This March, over spring break, my son and I spent some time in this area driving some of the dirt backroads and exploring the area’s natural features, like its steaming hot springs.
This whole area is white-washed with borax (sodium borate), and up until the early 20th century the borax salts were mined for commercial use, not unlike the Harmony Borax Works in Death Valley. In the case of Oregon’s Borax Lake, the 20-mule teams pulled wagons full of the white stuff to a railway terminal in Nevada, where it was shipped to factories before being propagated to mid-20th-century housewives desperate to remove grass stains from their kids’ clothing.
Not much remains of the old mining operations, but the hot springs are a colorful (albeit somewhat dangerous), off-the-beaten-path feature that I thought might be worth photographing during a sub-freezing March sunrise. (Those sub-freezing overnight temperatures in March aren’t uncommon on clear nights in the high desert.)
If the warning signs are to be believed, the lake itself has ridiculously high levels of arsenic that could cause undesired effects after a swim. So we stayed out. Despite looking rather shallow and inhospitable, the lake is home to a unique species of fish, the Borax Lake chub, which is now considered a threatened species because of its shrinking habitat.
The opening for the mountain view is shrinking as the trees branches sage lower and lower. This is in Queen Elizabeth Park.
I was playing around nearly a year ago and I got this idea... Shrinking mountains with a fish eye lens attachment. It's quite fun haha. Out of all my shrinking... This is one of my first and one of my favourites.

From the rock garden at Smith's Botanic Gardens, fabulous little Jeffersonia Dubia. This is the Chinese version of the American, Jeffersonia diphylla. Yes, named after Thomas Jefferson. Yes, has leaves that feel almost like a succulent, in bold colors. No, no Photoshop hocus pocus. :)
East Midlands Trains operated, InterCity Swallowed liveried class 43 no. 43102, 'The Journey Shrinker', accelerates away from its stop at East Midlands Parkway in glorious sunshine on Sunday 7th March 2021 working 1C43 Leeds to St. Pancras International up express.
The cooling towers at Ratcliffe-on-Soar Power Station provide the backdrop.
Classmate no. 43295 was at the rear of the six coach formation.
It certainly spoiled the view at the time but now makes for an interesting shot. Newport railway bridge was covered in plastic during its refurbishment before electrification work begins, with an attendant safety boat standing by in case any of the workers were unfortunate enough to fall in the Usk. Here 70802 crosses working 4C21 0955 Aberthaw - Avonmouth.
