Seeing 2011 (#124)

For your consideration: a repose caught in early morning sunlight — an inviting oasis to one who's mind has been awash and befogged in swirling and turbulent eddies of late.

Ironically this scene (a spontaneous impulse to experiment with a new wide-angle lens) was captured in a blissfully becalmed period well before atmospherics shifted to the red.

A Gratitude: all things change, including weather systems ensnared within the highly pressurized confines of the cranium.

I was delightfully surprised at how well this composition turned out; the rich details in the fabrics, geometric playfulness and depth, and soothing lighting combined to create an unexpectedly rich tableau of form and function.

Odd how it reminds me of Pee Wee's Playhouse . . .
