Ocean In The Sky (2024)
Named for the wave like cloud inversion below, I took this image early morning, shortly after golden hour and before the heat of the day burned off the clouds below.
I was motivated to capture a 1:1 ratio image of this location as part of a photographic challenge I set for myself in the region.

Who is punishing wanking birds? Who is imposing human sexual morals onto birds, ffs....

Explosive growth in clean technologies has pushed an old coal-heavy scenario out of the realm of plausibility, according to a recent study. But there’s more work to be done.

This stream is just off our regular walk.
We stop at the tiny side stream, so my dog can drink and wallow like a hippo on hot evenings.

Sea otter patrolling the coast on a quiet day. Minutes later it emerged with a clam. They use tools to open clams such as a rock or another clam. Photo taken during a photo tour in May.

Oh, for the boon of one long summer day,
My own, my very own!" I said, and sighed.
With happy heart I'd put my work away;
Then, like a child, I'd wander out to play,
And Joy and I would journey far and wide.
"We'd find, perchance, a field of buckwheat flowers,
All honey-sweet and murmurous with bees.
There, 'neath a sky washed blue by twinkling…

Why art thou chang'd? O Phaon! tell me why?
Love flies reproach, when passion feels decay;
Or, I would paint the raptures of that day,
When, in sweet converse, mingling sigh with sigh,
I mark'd the graceful languor of thine eye
As on a shady bank entranc'd we lay:
O! Eyes! whose beamy radiance stole away
As stars fade trembling from the burning sky!

The Oriole sings in the greening grove
As if he were half-way waiting,
The rosebuds peep from their hoods of green,
Timid, and hesitating.
The rain comes down in a torrent sweep
And the nights smell warm and pinety,
The garden thrives, but the tender shoots
Are yellow-green and tiny.
Then a flash of sun on a waiting hill,
Streams laugh that erst were…
