This is my stack of notebooks, most of which are Moleskine notebooks. I have written in less than a third of them, but I feel I should stock up for when I can take my trip to Polynesia or the Australian outback.
5 different images stacked using StarStax. I took these with my GoPro earlier this summer. Just now thought about stacking them. I can't wait for some more lightning shows. Hoping to get some better quality taken with my Canon on a tripod.
This image of an eastbound Norfolk Southern stack train on the Cleveland Line at Brady Lake, Ohio, was made the day after a snow storm blanketed the area with a few inches of snow.
Ilex vomitoria. A generally unappealing name, but Yaupon is a great tea plant (and a relative of Yerba mate, of South America..another drinkable holly). It, like probably all the holly group is a great bee plant, generous in attractants, and open architecture so all who come may drink and eat. Great semi-understory, edge of forest plant. Collect all the hollies why don't you. Specimen and photograph by Helen Low Metzman.

We Are Made One with What We Touch and See
We are resolved into the supreme air,
We are made one with what we touch and see,
With our heart's blood each crimson sun is fair,
With our young lives each spring impassioned tree
Flames into green, the wildest beasts that range
The moor our kinsmen are, all life is one, and all is change.

Desks and their accompanying chairs lay strewn about an abandoned classroom, many of them stacked upon one another just as they were when they were left there just shy of a decade ago on the afternoon of March 22, 2021, in the abandoned Pound, VA, high school.
Every bit as decorative as Japanese maples, Vine Maples (Acer circinatum) have an added bonus of providing local wildlife with food. . They are native to the Pacific Northwest from British Columbia to Northern California.
This Vine Maple tree looked shaggy with the spanish mosses covering its branches and sprawling over ferns under tall Douglas Fir trees. While it was too early in the year to see its glorious autumn colors, this tough as nails tree insisted on putting on a show by catching the morning sunlight as the warm rays of the sun penetrated through the thick canopy of Washington's Quinault Rainforest.

I occasionally go back to edit photos that I have taken in the past; this was from November 2012. This composite image used a photo stacking (or layering) technique in Photoshop. I call it cloud stacking. I used thirty images where only the clouds were in motion during two and a half minutes. Just after sunset, the bottom of the clouds were lit by a break in the clouds at the horizon. These thirty images were selected from the total sequence of 300.
A few days after I made this stack I received an email from Lancaster University asking me if I would enter something for their 'Experimentality' exhibition. They had asked me several weeks before that but I couldn't think of anything that would fit the theme and so I put it to the back of my mind.
This latest email came within a couple of days of the closing date and when I thought about it I reckoned the stills from this video would fit the experimentality theme as I realised that I hadn't witnessed or tried to witness the demise or collapse of a sculpture in such a way before.
So I took the ten stills that make up this timelapse and made them into a single picture, entered it and was very pleased to be chosen. (I am saving the actual picture for an upcoming book as it looks quite cool).
Quite a bit of luck was involved in capturing the stills for that video. I had not planned it and just gave it a go not expecting very much at all. The results were quite good
and now the exhibition has finished, the gallery has given me the printed picture and I have spent some time looking at it. I like the sculptural quality of each shot as it moves from its equlibrium point and gradually collapses from frame to frame (although this all happens in less than a second).
And so this accident of discovery spurred me on to get out there today and try again. Another thing I often find with my art is my first go is the best and that is why I rarely repeat the same sculpture but move onto something new. My first try always looks more fresh to me and so it was with these new attempts at playing with gravity. The pebbles on top of the pagoda stack all balanced the first time quite easily. In that incarnation they also looked the most symmetrical and elegant. Yet when I tried to knock it over I only succeeded in knocking the top off (as shown in this timelapse) and had to rebuild the balanced pebbles at the top. And this took a frustrating age... You may notice that single shot of each sculpture is different to the timelapses or composites and that is because I got each one 'right' first time but had to rebuild them again to collapse them, but each rebuild did not have the form of the original.
Why does it come so easily the first time only for it to be painfully difficult the second? I have experienced this so many times but cannot write it off as coincidental.
I tried several more stacks and attempted to capture each demise. A couple of times the wind beat me to it but after learning how best to collapse and capture each stack it left me bemused how the collapse of the temple stack was so perfectly captured and yet I didn't know what I was after and didn't try to do anything in a particular way. I call it the art of slack or following the line of least resistance. When I try to achieve something I often fail, when I just do without expectation I am often much more successful. Why? I don't know, but it seems to work for me.
You might think the second frame is the same as the first, but if you look closely you will see that the shadow of the thrown stone is coming in from the left.

Couldn't resist.. Had to see how the last two looked like as one. Apart from the interrupted star-trails (which are barely noticeable) I think I prefer this one to the originals.
Some thick encyclopedias stacked together on top of each other against a very intense red background. The books have different sizes and most of them have black hardcovers. They are casting a soft shadow behind them.
Ein etwas anderer Blickwinkel wie bei der letzten Aufnahme.
Ebenfalls 75 Einzelbilder, wieder mit der PostFokus Funktion aufgenommen und durch Helicon Focus zu einem Bild zusammengefügt.

Thin flexicover books stacked on top of each other and reflecting on the shiny black surface of the table. Each one has a different color. They are not aligned on neither side. There's a bright light source coming from the left side of the image.
