The photograph of the day sang to me these lines from a hymn, "snow had fallen snow on snow, snow on snow." I must have been appreciating how each flake balances on the next yet with no regard for symmetry or form. I might title this image, "re-use," to recognize how these spent flower pods have become vessels for a new kind of blossom.

It was a boondoggle day, 

here are a few other photographs in the snow:

This tree looks so regal dressed in white.

This lilac bush looks so much more wild
with snow-capped branches

I love to hear the cold squeak
of snow under tires

Why does chocolate in
another language
taste better?
 

I love simplicity and shape

Happy Birthday, Martin Luther King, Jr.

May the words of Martin Luther King, Jr. find flight:

 Get on board

Almost Spring
The day dawned rainy and spring like  

bright sun and temperatures in the 60s 

at noontime
and the sights and sounds 
 of jacket-less children

could have fooled anyone 

not sure of the date.

The sun appeared to be flying out of the clouds

Spring run-off appeared by every remaining snow pile
It was like "sun-glints on branch water."

At the airport

Which looks more like a restaurant or hotel.

The negative of this photo puts more focus 
on the body language of the people waiting.
At once a unique and universal experience.

365 Days

This blog is taking a slightly different focus for this year.  

The pull to read has been replaced by the pull to witness. I started this blog to explore the threads I was seeing in what I was reading and in which I was listening.  

At this moment in my life I feel called to see -- to see the light coming through the trees, to see the shadow on the leave, to see the clouds in the sky.  For the next 365 days I am going to upload at least one picture a day.  I'm looking forward to the journey and to see the story these photographs tell.
