water falling *

* such a description suggests its location might be important; however, this overly simple image is, primarily, a quick study of the whites of water creating a kanji-like presence against a dominantly black background.

maniminalism
This is a black and white image of a few rocks sitting in the water of a beach shoreline. In the foreground, a stream of water curves by on its way to the ocean-- and in the background clouds rise above the scene as the light shines.

road & light
This is a very basic image of a road winding through dairy farms and towards some light. You can see telephone poles and wires on the side of the road.

The jazz trio …
This is a black and white image of a trio of rocks in the water and four rocks in the sand and water of the shoreline. In the distance, the light breaks through the clouds.

Found on an aimless drive through the Petaluma dairy farms in Sonoma County, California. I have always loved how that one tree on the left stands apart from the crowd (and how how the one to the right of it looks as if it wishes to join that tree).
This is a photograph of a group of eucalyptus trees, most of which are settled in a dip on a hill above a dairy farm. One of the trees stands to the left of the group as if it is not part of that group. Above the trees, the light breaks through some clouds.

This is a very simple, basic image of two stones sitting on a shoreline. In the distance light fills a cloudy sky.

Stretching to the light . . .
In this image, an old oak tree leans toward the bright light, its branches stretching out as if trying to touch that light.

Earth life . . .
This is a photograph of a sea stack from the Sonoma Coast of Northern California. A few other rocks sit in the foamy water of the surf, the light breaks through the clouds above, and a cormorant sits on the sea stack.

it ain't why; it just is ...

silence & light
This is a basic picture of water separating two rocks-- reminiscent of jigsaw puzzle pieces-- jutting out into the sea. The light above the rocks is shining down and through dark rain clouds.
