Passing by………..

Fall’s Approaching………

The flow of life…………

“That it will never come again is what makes life so sweet.” Emily Dickinson

“In the name of God, stop a moment, cease your work, look around you.” Leo Tolstoy

Downstream………

“Do unto those downstream as you would have those upstream do unto you.” Wendell Berry

Spent……..

“A well-spent day brings happy sleep” Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)

Interesting, to me, da Vinci was 67 years of age when he passed…I bet he did sleep well.

Blizzard Hatch

The hatch of chironomids (midges), Blue Winged Olives and a few Caddis was so pronounced, I never managed to focus this shot, either manually or with the auto focus mode. The pesky insects were in my ears, eyes, nose, mouth and everywhere in between. I good thing for a healthy river system.

 

Pacific City’s Haystack Rock: Nature’s Editing of Light

Took a sequence of shots of Pacific City’s 340′ Haystack Rock (originally named Chief Kiawanda Rock for the head of the Nestugga Tribe…it would have been nice to have kept that name seeing as there is another Haystack Rock just up the coast at Cannon Beach) and later noted the change in natural lighting from about 3:30pm to 5:00pm.
