Production notes
This is twice, maybe three times or so that I've encountered a particular scenario. First time, twice in the same location, I'd be in a 'treehouse,' suspended over the Pacific Coast, the great redwood groves at my back, surf crashing the rocks hundreds of feet below me. Wind whipping and the house swaying romantically in the stiff, offshore breezes, me, with a word processor in font of me and nothing. Some of the most profound natural beauty in world, and I got

Shadow Image

One of the more fun aspects, visually, to me, of Santa Fe, is art. It's everywhere. There are times when I can't fathom the meaning. The dappled light of the aspen leaves, shimmering across the sidewalk, about three blocks east of the Plaza, it was the closest parking spot, and looking down, there was an icon, or icon-like, or maybe a pair of symbols. I have no clue. The shadows just accentuated the accidental nature of the image.

Purple Lupine

I was trying to ascertain the name of the flowering herb, growing wild, or possibly xeriscaped, but obviously quite prominent in drought-stricken New Mexico. In the process, I caught an image of this flower, a purple lupine of one form or another. I don't recall the name. Sort of common in the high desert. Point and click photography is iffy at best, but that one image fascinated me.


The herb I was trying to identify? I pulled up a picture on my phone.

Peeling Paint

The original image was just that, a picture of paint, peeling.

But wait, there's more!

It's not just paint peeling, it's a cleverly coded map of the world. The exposed parts? Isn't it obvious?

It's a favorite image, first shot a few years back, and one that I've grown to love. No reason. It's an old location, I'd guess, along South Alamo, just before or after Interstate -- I don't recall, and, I'd guess it depends on one's relative location, whether it is before or after the Interstate.

That was originally a Sky Friday image, but I got told to leave the original meme, access denied, and that was the
