Ode to Last Day of Winter
And if you feel that you can’t go on
And your will’s sinkin’ low
Just believe, and you can’t go wrong
In the light you will find the roadAs you would for me, oh, I would share your load
— In the Light (Page, Plant, Jones)
Let me share your load
Ooh, let me share, share your load
Changes
Changes.
We’re quite aware of what we’re going through.
Open to all things new, here and now.
Like the ripples
Change
The surface
But leave the deep
UndisturbedListening to: David Bowie
Primarily made with Procreate on iPad.
Open Eyes
I wish
that we humans
could see with our eyes
what we know to be trueWe can’t see, for instance,
the wind that blows
through the holes in our heart
but we know that it doesWe can’t see
the sound of the horn
jazzing up our night
but we know that it doesWe can’t see
the trees or the forest
producing the air
but we know that it doesWe can’t see
the source of all awareness
becoming incarnate
but somehow
we knowAnd it does
Fiery Flower
If you follow me on any social-media, you will have noticed that I do a lot of crazy things to flowers.
I love flowers just as they are, and occasionally post images that are pretty much straight out of the camera. However, there is nothing more exhilarating than being able to express myself through photo manipulation… using the captured image as the palette from which an artistic expression is created.
I know such things are not for everyone, but I do love sharing them with folks who enjoy them.

Light Bursts
Disrupting an otherwise realistic photograph is one of my favorite things to do these days. Creating and implementing a light burst in a photo adds a expressive dynamism.
Spirals
With these spirals,
I aspire to take you higher;
I spin to make you grin;
I blur to make you purr;
Reality, spun into a new meaning. Enjoy.
Architectural
My only formal photography training came at the UC Berkeley Architecture department. To this day my eye is pulled toward the way light and shadow dance on the face of a human-designed structure.
Flora – Flowers and Plants
I love to get close-up and personal with flowers, leaves, trunks and stems. Much of the plant kingdom has spent millions of years perfecting the art of reflecting light in brilliant and inspiring ways.
Abstract
Maybe we should call this the “Smoke and Mirrors” collection. These images are made using mostly in-camera effects and techniques.
