While my husband and I were watching the storm, I fired off a couple of long exposure shots. This was one that I captured. The lightning didn't go through the windmill but it sure appeared that way.

Water and stone are in constant dialogue - shaping one another through movement and time. This image, Threads of Water, opens the chapter The Dance of Water and Stone in my new book Artwork of Nature.
In this chapter, I explore how water carves the land over years and centuries, from gentle ripples to dramatic, sculpted formations. Each photograph reflects that ongoing exchange between two of nature’s strongest forces — a reminder of how motion leaves its mark and memory on the landscape.
After a wonderful first week of pre-sales, I’m deeply grateful for the support so far. If you’d like to explore the project and secure a signed copy, you can find all the details here:
A pair of yucca sport numerous white-tipped needles that gleam in the late afternoon light; each plant is festooned with a nest of bright, tendril-like threads that separate from the margins of the leaves, Klondike Bluffs, Arches National Park, Utah.
The family spent spring break in Moab, along with what seemed like a sizable portion of the Front Range population. My mother drove from Portland to meet us, and it was the first time we'd seen her and her husband since the end of 2019. One afternoon we realized we had never visited the Klondike Bluffs section of Arches, which is far up against the northwestern border of the Park. We walked an enjoyable 3.5 mile out-and-back route to Tower Arch, past the Marching Men which are tall, fragmented pillars of sandstone fins, waiting to meet gravity's final embrace. There was an impressive queue to enter the Park, and strangely we had the trail largely to ourselves.
This 4mm square frame or 5/32 inch square frame captures the perfect together ....needle and thread.
Make compassion the cotton, contentment the thread,
modesty the knot and thruth the twist.
This is the sacred thread of the soul;
if you have it, then go ahead and put it on me.

Thanks for views, faves and comments! ;-)
Always plenty of thread to choose from in our house. These are the oldest reels I could find, left over from previous generations... given a vintage mono feel.

You are my golden thread ♥
We don't accomplish anything in this life alone...and whatever happens is the result of the whole tapestry of one's life and all the weavings of individual threads from one to another that creates something.

Thread the needle, something that seems to get more difficult with each passing year. It was miserable outside so I decided to shoot a little macro inside.

Passing through Tunnel 40 along the Colorado River, an eastbound Union Pacific coal train traverses Little Gore Canyon east of Azure, Colorado, on August 21, 2014.
Sitting on top of the rocky summit of the iconic mountain called the Cobbler. Threading the needle is the term used for squeezing through the small opening and scrambling to the true summit.
Red Threads is a macro photograph of a rose. It is a floral portrait of the Biblical heroine Rahab. This photo is a part of the 'Botanical Beauty' exhibition in Jerusalem.
Puffins were on the ledge directly below one of the viewing stations - close enough for shots but difficult to get an angle. I leaned out and over, trying not to give in to vertigo and waiting for gusts to blow vegetation out of my shot!
When my husband's mom passed away several years ago, she left behind a tin with some sewing items. This thread is one of the items. I have never seen a spool of thread with two strands like this, so found it interesting. I wonder if it may have been used for embroidery. She never sewed much, but possibly her mother did.
I placed the thread on the back side of a small quilted wall hanging that I made...a bee printed shirting fabric was used for the backing.
