richard, in the sky

Some people see bunnies or faces or dragons or castles when they look at the clouds.

I am not one of them. I mostly saw a formation that I named “Richard” – if you seen what I mean.

daughter of the clouds

Lately I’ve been missing shade trees, specifically the dappled light under them, the sound of the leaves in a breeze, the way it feels cooler under them, and how they feel like an invitation to sit a while. I don’t know where this longing is coming from: I’ve spent most of my life living where shade trees aren’t really a thing that happens unless you have to foresight to plant them yourself. But it’s definitely something on my mind.

But on the other hand, a bunch of trees would block these kinds of views.

which way the wind will blow

The weather was changing: winter was on the way.

But it was 70 degrees when I made the photo of a golden weathervane and an abandoned hospital.

the sky has a big personality

There was a lot of weather going on that day: it filled up the whole sky, which is saying a lot.

sky: afire

Let’s just go ahead and get this out of the way: I went to Maine. There was a spectacular sunset one night.

There was other stuff too, so stay tuned. But also know that that nothing else I post is going to be quite this dramatic.
