A blogger near Seattle exploring the future
My interest in photography started back in elementary school, and I studied it all through high-school. The shift from analog/film to digital changed so very much, yet so much remains the same.
walking through sunlight
these flowers watch my progress
and summer’s approach
It’s a few weeks yet until summer, though we’ve had days with a summer feel. A few more days of cool dampness, then summer-like weather starts again. Slowly, iteratively, we’ll approach summer. Spring petals will continue to fall.
between the rain squalls
I get to walk in the sun
flowers cheer me on
flowers in sunlight
with glorious abandon
bold before the rain
poppies in the breeze
graceful dance in the sunlight
memory’s echos
the grace of sunlight
pulling the rose towards the sky
joy of hummingbirds
step by step
I move through
weariness
underneath the clouds
moments of sunlight pulled down
the delights of spring
amidst the birdsong
and the days getting warmer
petals are falling
within coffee shops
respites from the coldest rain
such sanctuary
I took this photo at Everett’s Narrative Coffee. The ambiance delights me. With its brick walls, I return to many cold, wet days from when I lived downtown Seattle. Books, pastries, coffee; the elements of classic elegance.
Just a little editing in Photoshop to capture the mood. A little blur for a vignette, a bit of color balancing, et viola!
