winter blue
composing myself
for now …

 

Ithaca Falls looked today...1-28-15--
Wind sculpted snow just off Cayuga Lake in Stewart Park 1-28-15... and a bike tread and a footstep of snow left stuck on the paved path...
Wind sculpted snow just off Cayuga Lake in Stewart Park 1-28-15... ..and a little snow person out on the ice...
Wind sculpted snow just off Cayuga Lake in Stewart Park 1-28-15...
Willow in the wind at Stewart Park today-1-28-15... the breeze coming off the lake was really intensely cold but there were ice fishermen out there and two people flying gigantic kites-
Ice on the gorge wall near Ithaca Falls 1-28-15--
Ithaca Falls 1-28-15--
Ithaca Falls 1-28-15..
Ithaca Falls 1-28-15.
Wind sculpted snow just off Cayuga Lake in Stewart Park 1-28-15... and a bike tread
Wind sculpted snow just off Cayuga Lake in Stewart Park 1-28-15... and a footstep of snow left stuck on the paved path...
near zero- just rabbits and crows...

late summer…
the trance of sun
on lily pads

 

 

late summer... the trance of light on lily pads
this quiet reach of trees and light...
in bundled bunches a mess of milkweed seeds ready to go....-
flowerfull display...
walking alone- submerged logs come to light ...
