POTD: Gleaming Between the Lines
Gleaming Between the Lines
Ajo, Arizona
2024
Lately, I’ve been thinking about our time in Ajo last January. Some early anticipation of returning there in January, 2025 I guess. It just so happened that I’ve had this photo of a new moon and a “nearby” planet (I don’t remember which) sitting in my potential POTD image folder on my computer since returning home last winter, so it seemed right to to post it now.

Cool Morning
Bozeman, Montana
2024
If you live in one place long enough your appreciation of the surrounding views can become a little jaded after a while. For me that’s somewhat the case in regard to our mountain home. In theory I appreciate the views all the time but in practice I don’t always pay much attention to them; it takes some special circumstances to make me stop while I’m out doing whatever the chores of the day are to just appreciate my surroundings. This was the case just the other day. It was a cool morning after a string of hot days, enhanced by partly cloudy skies and a slight breeze. The trees and greenery looked lush despite the heat, and the distant Absaroka mountains looked mysteriously alluring in the morning haze that was actually haze due to moisture in the air rather than the forest fire smoke that has plagued us off and on for a number of weeks.

I’ve photographed this downed and decaying tree on our property more than once before but I’m taken by its character every time I walk by it so couldn’t help but take just one more (maybe) photo of it.

It’s behind a fence and posted no trespassing, but I sure wanted to wander across the little bridge and explore the other side of the creek.

I’m not sure how this mask ended up in our house, and I’m not sure why I at some point dressed up this statue with it. And I was definitely surprised by the character it revealed in its shadow when the sun came out. It looks like a cartoon rat wearing an old rumpled derby hat.

My latest composite image effort. (It’s just a coincidence that I finished this just when the media has been talking about the Harris-Walz campaign bring back the joy to political campaigning.)
