Black and white photo taken outside in winter, looking down from the top edge of a steep, snow-covered set of stairs leading to a landing and another set of snow-covered stairs and a footbridge below. Elmwood Park, Omaha.
So, this week's #BlueskyArtShow theme is : #edge

This photo shows a multi-tiered waterfall cascading down a steep, layered rock cliff, its white water flowing in silky veils over stepped ledges before churning at the base. Rugged gray-brown cliffs tower above and around it, dotted with vibrant foliage in bright yellows, oranges, and greens, under a clear blue sky

Fungi on a log. "Polypores, also known as bracket or shelf fungi, are a diverse group of wood-eating mushrooms with a leathery or woody texture." They are surprisingly stiff. From the woods near Olympia. Framed by a rotten log and great forest foliage.
On The Edge Of A Log
Polypores.
Shelf fungi.
Looks cool.
Surprisingly sturdy.
Almost woodlike.
Growing on a fallen log in the Quinault Rainforest. From a particularly stellar hike.

A long pier extends diagonally across calm water at dusk, its repeating metal supports forming a strong linear pattern that leads to a small lighthouse at the end. The sky is filled with soft blue-gray clouds, fading to warm tones near the horizon, while the water reflects the dim evening light. Small groups of people walk along the pier, appearing as dark silhouettes against the fading sky.

A closeup picture of a moth with wings of a complex pattern of comprising hues of gray and brown in bright light. Its head has light brown eyes, with fringed antennae sweeping out over the wings. The moth is resting flat against the light colored bark of a tree.
Yesterday I encountered a moth resting on a tree.

A disheveled small feather close up. The white, graf and brown wispy fown feathers look razor thin towards the top of the feather are the stiffer flight feathers, white dark gray and black. The feather sits freely upright, I used a large holed spice jar to position the feather and prep it to be photographed. I consider this series, a series of portraits.

Aren’t we capable of so much more than bombs, bullets and braggadocioness? Animals are and I’ve seen humans choose to be more too.

A dolphin peers over the edge of a tank.
I’m glad the National Aquarium has stopped presenting dolphin shows, and is preparing to release its current residents into a sanctuary. We need to be more respectful of the creatures, plants and organisms we share the planet with. #BlueSkyArtShow #Edge #EastCoastKin #Photography

An abstract artwork showing colourful bubbles of bokeh (in light green, pink, and purple) against a purple background. I made this in Procreate using the bokeh brush (one of my favourite brushes)
"Colour Circus"
Some may say this artwork sits at the #edge of sanity. It's a fun place to be, that edge. What's life without a little insanity anyway?

Frank Lloyd Wright’s aqua blue steel and glass 125’ spire in Scottsdale, Az with whispy clouds and a deep blue sky. Shaped like a sawtooth the spire reaches towards the sky until it’s invisible. The base fills the vertical image. The story of the spire is really incredible and you should have a read about it.

Looking up the mountainside of Skunk Ridge in our Cedar Mountains. This is the scene that caught my eye. Due to my relatively new mobility problems I stayed stationary & close to my assistance devices. I'm fairly certain that these are five cedar trees, but I could be wrong. (I'm forgetful because of long-term chronic pain; plus I loathe the effects of medications for it. I'm in love with my brain's abilities and refute the labeling of it as being a disability. Screw that! I'd put my abilities up against most 'modern' people's brains! Plus, I love 'study' and do it EVERY day/night -across countless disciplines. It feels both joyful & wonderful to be so engaged.) A dead tree & it's gnarled/sparde shape is forefront. A more recently dead tree with its bare branches fully intact -is next up the mountainside. A third tree is mostly dead, but not quite. And, midway up this rugged slope are two fully green evergreen trees, in all of their truly hardy beauty. Above this scenario is a long, narrow angled strip of shadow as the mountain & ridge is slowly falling into the end of the day. To me, it balanced my scene to perfection, taking it in.
Angles of a mountainside slope cut upwards, left to right, across this scene as two hardy and short desert evergreen trees cast their shadows downslope -also left to right. The composition is weighted on the left side. The trees are probably cedars, but juniper trees could be correctly observed here in this harsh desert scene. There are some desert grasses & plantlife -but it's so obviously a very dry ridge. The other side (westward) is void of trees. This eastward side gets the slightest amount more of precipitation, and the sparse population of these trees is evidence of this very slight difference!
In a vertical composition, we are looking upon the exact same scene as the previous photograph entails of. I almost always shoot most scenarios in both horizontal and vertical compositions. I usually crop my choices with the camera. Cropping with the camera with an eye out for an interesting setting engages your compositional & perspective skills. These things engages both your mind & heart. They also better engage your audience, post production and/or sharing.
Although it's difficult for me to stand for very long, here I am taking a few shots. Our big, purple Jeep is to my left. Me and our Standard Poodle are centered between two desert evergreen trees (Cedars? Probably. Juniper, perhaps) of in the distance. My partner, this incredibly smart & duty oriented Poodle usually stays close by my side when he detects that I might need his body to lean upon. The sun's getting low in the sky, and our shadows are long! My wife took the picture of my doing such the same!
