in bonsai
there is a shaping wind in the hand
it flows from thoughts
from a vision
it flows for a lifetime
yet the bonsai is never complete...
when that lifetime ends
the bonsai may pass to another hand
perhaps the thoughts the vision
merge with that hand
perhaps they diverge
perhaps this continues
for several lifetimes
yet the bonsai is never complete...
it is complete only when
every molecule of the bonsai
has returned pollenlike to the ether...
eventually
a single molecule may reappear
it may reappear in a vision
it may reappear in a hand
it may reappear in a wind

With all this wind and rain we have been having here on the South coast of the U.K. I thought a long exposure of 25s would work.

Wind on the island
The wind is a horse
hear how he runs
through the sea
through the sky (...)

On my return from completing a time-lapse of the sunrise, I stopped and captured this panorama. Wind farms integrated within crop farms are seen for miles in the flat lands north of Lafayette, IN, illustrating the people's dedication to using green energy.
The clearest image of the series that demonstrates the power of the wind the night I took images in Julian Cal.
Our AirBnB host had slipped a page into the guest book saying "My favorite place to stargaze in the desert is a plot of land out in the middle of Wonder Valley. I call it the Star Box. It's far from light pollution and you'll be all alone out there. Venmo $25 for access to the land. I do not take responsibility for nails or glass in tires. Arrive before sunset or you'll never find the place." The tire thing worried us, but we paid up, got the coords, and checked it out in daylight - soft sand road, but seemed fine. It was indeed magical - I hadn't seen a sky this big before - free of obstructions in every direction, ringed by distant mountains all the way around, a totally enveloping experience. I'd expected the temps to drop with nightfall, but a warm wind persisted. We ate pizza and watched the North Star appear, then watched as cosmos lit up. The downside of the location for astro photography is that there were no landmarks, so there's nothing to include (skies with stars and nothing else are boring). But we had fun doing some light painting in the desert while we waited for the full star show. Amazing evening.
I don't like winter wind.
It is too chilly.
Dry out everything.
I remember that cried on the day that blows cold wind in childhood.
Winter wind is not good for me.

On the Saddle Road from Hilo to Kailua-Kona the the prevailing wind is stiff and yields for little but the lava. This tree, long dead, shows the result of a lifetime of fighting the highands' prevailing winds.
Looking straight into the sun across choppy waters, the Brighton Baths and the marina. Been a bit of a crazy day in Melbourne with wind, rain and (very occasional) sun competing with each other. Mostly, the rain won.
There is nothing like the wind blowing across the prairie in the early evening!
A little Neil Young works perfect here.
wind that would blow you down the hill, that (if you tried to fall into it) would keep you suspended in air, that made the car feel like it was going tip over, that woud untie your scarf, that struck fear into the hearts of innocent tourists, that would make you laugh uncontrollably, that kept you cowering against the side of the wall, that was so strong you could see it ... I don't know the exact MPH, but it was stronger than anything i've personally ever felt.
When you can't change the direction of the wind. Flow with it.
