It was a very windy day out on the lake. Great day for a sail but not so much the the workers on the pier fixing the old lighthouse.
Sooner or later, all of us feel the need of being in a wind of change and that's Polaris feeling at the moment. Her time here is over and she's ready to go.
So, she is been singing softly to herself this lovely song all the morning: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OhJnpSYCiMc
--ooOOoo--
Tarde o temprano, todos nosotros sentimos la necesidad de un cambio de aires y Polaris está justo en ese momento. Su tiempo termina y está lista para dar un nuevo aire a su vida.
Quizás por eso, lleva toda la mañana canturreando esta canción: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OhJnpSYCiMc
Playa de Porto, Cantabria, Spain.
Early morning brought a strong wind from the sea and the full show of force of an angry sea.

I listen to the wind
to the wind of my soul
Where I'll end up well I think,
only God really knows
I've sat upon the setting sun
But never, never never never
I never wanted water once
No, never, never, never
I listen to my words but
they fall far below
I let my music take me where
my heart wants to go
I swam upon the devil's lake
But never, never never never
I'll never make the same mistake
No, never, never, never
Late fall sunset over Wind Canyon Overlook in the Theodore Roosevelt National Park South Unit. We thoroughly enjoyed this park from sunrise to sunset!
I shot this third McIntosh winter shot for my chilly series. Toward the McIntosh dairy barn, the windmill towers. The shot includes one outhouse. I kind of liked the lacy sky. We had little winter this year. I bailed because I expected this might be the one McIntosh open day with snow this winter. This winter's February is very far from normal here with the Koch C02 pump-fest into the atmosphere allotted the globe with the current 8% gain in moisture so expect rougher weather swings everywhere. We are at the warmest and driest February on record.
Boy, could those wood stoves in the house be comfortable on days like this! This snowy shot toward the northeast looks chilly but days like this can be quite mellow in the valley. I had to shot before I got near and tracked the snow up which is still clean here.
I swung by the Agricultural Heritage Center, The Lohr McIntosh Farm because they opened for first Saturdays throughout the winter. I decided I might not get another shot of winter for my Mac ag series. I loaded up with autumn captures this year in general but I need to switch back into the slim winter. The snowy day crowd was thin, except for the fellow who was there to exercise his kestrel, for the wintry day and even highway #66 was certainly slow. Considering all the pigeons that hang around the old structures, I question the kind of exercise the kestrel, a bird of prey, might be getting. I suspect that it may not be altogether legal to hunt on city and county parks. A year ago, I found some bald eagles hunting the Mac area, sometimes successfully.
Mattie is wearing a darling dress and jacket from Mimi Chocolat. Love this sweet set so much, Carla! Many thanks!
Gale force winds shaped the sand dunes, just as the light of the setting sun set the landscape aglow in golden light. Have photographed Mesquite dunes of Death Valley for over 10 years and cannot remember a time when patterns, light and color came together so eloquently to convey the essence of the desert.
2026 workshop launched.
The transient beauty of the coast is intricately intertwined with the captivating patterns that emerge in the sand, crafted by the relentless forces of wind and wave. These natural sculptors shape the shoreline, leaving behind ephemeral masterpieces.
As the tides ebb and flow, they orchestrate a delicate dance with the sand. With each advancing wave, the water gently caresses the shore, carrying particles of sand along its journey. As the wave recedes, it relinquishes its cargo, depositing the grains in a meticulous arrangement. This cyclical process, repeated countless times, creates intricate patterns that stretch along the coastline.
The patterns left behind by the retreating tide mimic the ebb and flow of life itself. Swirling ripples, reminiscent of a miniature desert landscape, emerge as the water recedes, their graceful curves and undulating lines transforming the beach into a living work of art. The patterns are at once orderly and chaotic, with intricate geometrical formations intermingling with whimsical curves and asymmetrical shapes.
The wind, a silent artist in its own right, adds its touch to the sculpting process. As it sweeps across the coast, it whispers secrets to the sand, coaxing it to dance in its invisible embrace. The wind's gentle touch lifts fine particles from the beach, carrying them aloft in an intricate ballet. It sculpts the sand into delicate ripples, resembling the soft undulations of fabric.
The interplay between the wind and the tide results in an ever-changing landscape. The patterns shift and evolve, shaped by the combined forces of these elemental sculptors. Ripples become miniature mountains, rising and falling in a transient topography that mirrors the larger contours of the surrounding coast. Each gust of wind and every advancing or receding wave leaves its mark, etching new patterns and erasing old ones, in an eternal cycle of creation and destruction.
These ephemeral patterns serve as a reminder of the impermanence of existence and the transient nature of beauty, as each passing moment alters the landscape, erasing what once was and creating something new. The sands become a canvas for the symphony of time, a tangible reflection of the ever-changing nature of our lives.
The beauty of these fleeting patterns lies not only in their visual allure but also in the emotions they evoke. They inspire a sense of wonder and awe, inviting us to pause and appreciate the intricate designs that nature creates with such effortless grace. The patterns speak of the interconnectedness of all things, the harmonious interplay between the elements, and the constant flux that defines our existence.
In these patterns of nature, we find a profound lesson: that life, like the shifting sands, is ever-changing, and that true beauty lies not in permanence but in the appreciation of the fleeting moments that grace our journey.
I took the picture out of the window at the hotel The Westin in Leipzig.
