2021, Rental House in Bellingham
Something audacious about making this image monochrome, when the sky was the brightest blue, and the greens, shocking. We find little acts of rebellion everywhere ;-)
Yellow
Our pasture is currently covered in these. A weed, but so pretty and such a nice color.

A place in time alone
All things just beginning again.
A rekindling of light.
For [you] the sun shines; for [me] the moon and the stars. -Hermann Hesse
adieu spring
A transitional season, with all colors on display. The northwest might just be heading into Summer, finally.

This week I’m coming at you with all the Aquarius vibes. Clouds, water, air, space. A balance of lightness and weight.
Actually, I’m not too sure how that’s different from normal ;-)

Details #2 Light Catcher
For whatever reason, I’m fascinated by this building downtown. It’s weird, and interesting, and not really that photogenic, and yet, I keep finding angles I love, beautiful lines, shapes worth sharing.
I feel this way deeply about people too. So often, despite our progressive perspective, we overlook the details and thus, miss out on the diverse beauty that exists both externally and internally. We’ve got our narrow definitions, not realizing life is kind of more of a thesaurus, and less of a dictionary. We’re still doing what we’ve done for millennia.
Our inability to see nuance robs us of the richness found in who we encounter day to day.
Sure we’ve got some assholes in this lovely world of ours. And we all get irritated at the people who seem to have it all and whistle about it. I’d argue we need those people to show up too, just to keep us understanding where the parameters are, flowing in and out of all the in between.
Details #1-Little Marvel
All the flowers
Would have very extra-special powers
They would sit and talk to me for hours
When I'm lonely in a world of my own..

soft sunday
Small and driven and colorful. And just what it needs to be.

Waves in Silence
When life feels uncertain, find salt water.
In the Finite
Wasted time will break a heart faster than any failure.
Don’t distract me with the useless, but fill this limited space up with intention and living.
Trying and caring, in no particular order, as long as each is present.
No manipulations, no perfections, just things as they desperately are,
as I am, in the finite.
-recent thoughts
Dreams and dreams only.
Life on Earth
We’ve run away with possibilities and can’t see the utopia we already have.
We can’t see that we’re destroying it.
Or if we can, for whatever reason,
none of which I’ve heard is good enough
we don’t care.
Shoreline
I went for overcast skies and when I got to the end of the trail, the sun came out. Take from that what you will :-)
