Good morning! I took this shot on the north shore of Oahu. I named her the "Golden Girl".

A large print of this #dragonfly has been the subject a couple my photography shows.

"What happens to a #dream deferred?," Langston Hughes once asked, looking perhaps like me into an empty flask.
I have simmered on his words, dynamite of want ready to blow.
Whatever happens happens.
It often seems explosions end up being just for show.

Bad Dog - probably one of my favorites. late in the series, and digital while the rest were traditional. I was trying to find my way back to something.

Emotional outbursting
seams reigned back,
garroted; deprived of
life and another’s sight:
my held-in tensions.
