A Good Old Truck

In the Eastern WA farm lands there are periodic stands of trees, lined up like soldiers in a narrow wing formation. They are pretty striking in the middle of vast open space. I imagine that is the point, all that open space and nothing to slow winds and fire. Fire breaks. At least that's my take for now. This wonderful old truck was nestled into the base of them earlier this spring. The working, wood panel sided truck, in Real Life, is deep green. 

Wedding Flowers

An outdoor wedding, dressed tables and some "other world" lilacs. 

My world, though not my wedding of course. 

It was fun to attend.

Returning Places

There are places we return to in our lives, over and over again. Carmel Mission is one of those returning places for me. Father Serra's room remains in it's simplicity. The architecture of this time period always feels familiar and safe to me. I like to revisit old places; in person, in memory, in photo.

Fantasy Fields

Fantasy fields. 
An altered version of what the camera captured, 

but close to what my minds eye saw that day. 

South East WA felt alive in the most electric of ways. 

The Eastern Side

The Eastern side of the State.

Looks like I've brought you winter 

on the first day of spring.

The Seattle Space Needle and Lake Washington, taken recently through the car window. Another photo shot while moving so a bit blurry. Transitioned from useless into something more interesting in Photoshop Elements.
