It Floats

Full moon behind stratus and lenticular standing-wave clouds (bottom) ; quite common over the mountains at this time of year. Shot at 5 a.m., December 17.

“Hair” it is

My cachet to be ? Tucked within obscure corners of all my photos. Landscapes ?

Distortion

Water turns the world upside down without having to stand on one’s head.

Silhouettes

The safest way to view a Viking ? Frozen in time and space.

Song Title (Autumn Leaves)

Radiant Fall is perfect, if fleeting. Blessedly this magic kingdom returns year after year its multi-hued robes but slightly altered.

Light and Airy

Storm clouds breaking over the Front Range of the Rockies as they are wont to do.

Other Photographers

Chez Mondrian, Pairs, 1926 (lower left) by André Kertész; one of the most perfect compositions I think I have ever seen. Kertész took that famous series in black and white of Washington Square in New York. I love Snapshot Poetics by Allen Gingsberg.

Hearts

Mimicking the tender image of the children, the natural and man-made sculptures complement each other perfectly.

The Color Pink

Pink to my eye, okay? This is really about the rich hues and contrasts, okay, and the cascading water, which is just a small section of four rather tall towers. The four together make a challenging subject to capture in an appealing way.

In the Trees

Aspens are mountain dwellers and difficult to grow even in Denver. These, at the Denver Botanic Gardens, are among the most magnificent I have seen at such a “low” altitude.
