I hadn't brought a book, so as tempting as it was to find a spot along the bank to settle down upon and read, I couldn't.

But that didn't stop me from finding a spot along the bank to settle down upon and listen to the stream flow by.

1/ As #winter in the #mountains winds down, I am concluding my fifth year of #snowshoeing in the mountains. So many great memories, so much to reflect. I began doing serious snowshoeing in the mountains around the peak of the pandemic (winter 2020/2021) when I needed to get outside. (CONT) #MountainMonday #PhotoMonday

Photo of me standing on mountain summit holding a pair of snowshoes. A distant mountain peak is behind me with snow-covered trail leading to it along the ridge. Gray overcast skies.

This photo was taken by a passing hiker at the summit of Little Haystack Mountain, White Mountains, New Hampshire. The neighboring mountain is Mt. Lincoln. February 25, 2025.

Spring Morning on The Mountain ... another scene from the backyard up at the cabin at Blue Knob All Seasons Resort in the #LaurelHighlands of #Pennsylvania.

Loosely based on my own photo and hand-painted, digitally, in #CorelPainter on my dear old #Wacom tablet and #artpen.

On a soft spring morning, gentle sunlight highlights four wooden adirondack chairs arranged on green lawns. Surrounded by a tall trees and colorful wildflowers, the views of the distant hills beneath clear blue skies create a serene and inviting atmosphere.

Several years ago I spied a scarlet tanager in just this spot. I've never seen one before or since ... they don't frequent my backyard feeders at home, but on that day I had my camera and the 150-500mm Sigma lens with me and shoot that pretty birdie I did! But the distance was still too great, so even with the big lens, my captures were only useful for personal memories of the moment. To honor the birdie, I painted two of the little guys into this scene, as an homage to what Mother Nature has up her sleeves, if we're only in the right place at the right time to see. And hopefully have our camera handy, too!

Loosely based on my own photo and digitally hand painted in Corel Painter 2023 using the Wacom tablet and art pen stylus. No artificial intelligence programs used.

One of my favorite ways to begin a day is with the question, "So, what do you want to do today?"

Not enough days begin that way, since generally, the things that need to be done have already announced themselves, but on those days when there are no obligations, it's my favorite question to ask.

So much life had been lived in this place: the old church had looked out upon generations of families farming in this valley, people who climbed up to the hilltop city to visit its markets, walk its streets, enter its buildings.

The technology had changed but humanity had not: there were goodness and evil, greed and kindness, fear and calm.

Reality is timeless.

A narrow waterway flowing through a lush, green environment. The water's surface acts as a mirror, reflecting the surrounding trees and sky.

On the left bank, vibrant green bushes dotted with clusters of purple flowers add a splash of color to the scene. Towering above them are trees with varying shades of green foliage, creating a sense of depth and texture.

The right bank mirrors this lushness, with dense green bushes and trees. However, a striking tree with red and orange leaves stands out, adding a beautiful contrast to the predominantly green landscape.

The waterway itself is calm, with subtle ripples disturbing the perfect reflections. The bottom of the shallow stream is visible in parts, revealing dark stones and possibly some vegetation.

I love where I live, but while I'm traveling, I frequently see places that make me stop and think, "I'd like to live there."

But as I'm an ordinary person without the finances to own multiple homes, I just take a look, grab a reference photo, and back in my studio, paint the moment.

Sometimes spring is subtle, arriving slowly and quietly, in a calm and measured manner.

But quite often she arrives audaciously, flinging color and beauty over a landscape that, just a few minutes before it seems, was drab and grey.

Either way or in between she is welcome, always welcome.

Good morning. ☕☕☕

13 May 2025

Hopefully, today is a yardwork day. I tend to put things off whenever I feel like it, but the ever-growing grass serves as a reminder that I need to take action—kind of like my cluttered desktop. For weeks, I've been telling myself I need to clear it off, yet I let things stay there simply as reminders that each item requires attention. You see how that works, right? Then there's the water bottle in the corner—I have no idea why it's there, but it's been sitting for a while. A mystery not worth solving. I also need to vacuum my office floor. The Roomba comes through every morning, but lately, it just seems to shuffle things around.

"Procrastination is like a credit card: it's a lot of fun until you get the bill." — Christopher Parker

Notice things.

Sometimes, when I'm out walking, I spot something and snap a picture. Unlike the days of film, there’s no cost to taking the shot—even if it seems unremarkable at the time. But later, as I sift through the photos, I notice details I overlooked. When I took this particular shot, I focused on the birds without really seeing the forest around them. I’m not sure what species they are, but I’d guess they belong to the local pigeon battalion.

"This image beautifully captures a forest scene during autumn, with trees displaying a mix of golden yellow and green foliage. The sky is a vibrant blue with a few wispy clouds drifting across it. Adding an element of movement to the tranquil landscape, several birds are seen soaring high above the treetops. The framing includes branches on both sides, creating a natural border that enhances the depth of the scene. The contrast between the rich autumn colors and the crisp sky makes this an eye-catching photograph, highlighting both the serenity and liveliness of nature." - Copilot

Children bubble.

There is a vivacity about their being that brings a spring to their step, a bounce to their hop, an ebullience and sparkle to pretty much every movement they make.

They play with joy, discover with wonder, live with innocence and rapture.

How much we adults can learn from them!

Alien Landscape at Sunset

An expanse of water and sand. The low tide has left sandy mudflats with rippling patterns and spiderwebs of little rivers receding into the water. The orange sunset reflects off the wet surfaces, making it look like an alien landscape, bathed in orange light.

Not that long ago, it was cold, and we shivered when we went outside without a coat.

Not too many weeks from now it will be hot, and we'll hold the glass of iced tea against our face as we think about snow . . .

To watch a storm brewing, slowly unfolding, you need an unimpeded view of the sky -- no buildings in the way. And that's what you find in a large field with mountains and trees in the distance.

Watch the wind whip its way through the clouds, stirring them up, pushing them about, piling them up, getting ready for the big show.
