"I think architecture has a great influence on my painting. I think it gives me a sense of order and structure."

Radiance

A breathtaking collection capturing nature's most luminous moments—where water mirrors sky, clouds catch fire, and light transforms ordinary landscapes into extraordinary visions. Each image celebrates the interplay between earth and atmosphere, showcasing dramatic sunbursts, crepuscular rays piercing through forests, mammatus clouds forming otherworldly patterns, and silhouettes framed against blazing horizons. These scenes remind us of the ephemeral beauty that surrounds us during golden hour and twilight, when the world seems to pause and glow with an almost magical quality. From serene lake reflections to explosive cloudscapes, this is nature performing its daily light show—raw, untamed, and utterly mesmerizing.

[89degree]

It has been a while since I got out to take photos. Still dealing with the psychological fallout of Covid. The last few times out have been uninspiring at best. I have been reading the collected works of St Teresa of Avila Vol.2 ( just started really). She was discouraged too but for different reasons but her perseverance might have inspired me. She wanted to do big things for God but being a woman in the 16th century she had few options and she knew it. So she looked for things she could do. She could not preach but she could help and pray and teach like minded women to serve in that way. When I started taking pictures I wanted to change the world not knowing what that meant or how to do it. Little did I know that photography would become a prayer language for me. I can't travel the world, don't, have a studio. I manage to keep myself in enough gear to do art and record the happenings in my community Though I am not a prolific as I used to be. I, too, am a victim of our times. I feel the resentments from people on the street to the presence of my camera. So it gets harder. Today I almost turned around and went home because the light that got me out had quickly disappeared. I went on passed the hospital though the tent city under the viaduct and into Montose Park. I tried a few handheld IR photos at about 1.6sec. to get a feel for composing trough the EVF with suss a dark filter. Truly uninspired images. I pushed on toward the beach . Again I was about to turn back after I took more of the same. But I heard machinery clanking out on the beach went to check it out. This is the first of 3 infrared images, the only one hand held. Sometimes I tell myself that there is nothing out there for me , I want to go somewhere where the paint is old and the colors ... different , and just living is a challenge . Just living is challenge here, and expressing that reality with a side of hope is what I do. I like this image. The sidewalk through no effort of its own is not completely covered and these three trees seem to stand watch over it.

Peace and Grace. ( the 14th day of advent.)
