Sugarloaf Ridge State Park, California. The light on the moss is what first attracted me to this scene. The leaf was an incredible bonus. Without it, the picture is fairly ordinary I think.

I was scoping out birds on this beautiful afternoon in autumn but didn’t see a single one. I aimed at the trees instead and started photographing colorful leaves. I thought this single, jagged leaf against a sea of its blurred counterparts was rather striking.

This is another grouping of leaves in my abstract leaf series. At the end of Autumn, many leaves have fallen from trees affording me the opportunity to see them from from a different perspective. Using my Macro lens, I could focus on the vivid colors, textures and designs of one of nature’s most beautiful creations. I enhanced the colors to highlight the intricate designs of each piece to see the various juxtapositions creating artistic compositions. Many of the photographs of leaves were taken on a rainy day that added great lighting to see the clarity of these vibrant leaves. I believe using nature’s materials offers stunning abstracts that are most majestic in their elemental form. I use bark, rocks, flowers, plants, and other natural creations of nature to create abstracts and representational photographs. To enjoy the full detail, these photographs are best seen in the larger format. There are many interesting images in this abstract including some unusual beasts, one in orange that looks like an / angry primate under the mutli-colored large leaf. I perceive what appears to be an alien figure entering the photograph on the lower left and a woman’s face on the upper left. There are many icons in this piece and I am interested in what what you see. / Please view this in the large format.

This is another of the flowers from my show and poems for her. Too many times we hear the horrors of inner city violence but do we take time to think of the effect a rose can have on the life of a child. / This is my perspective on this based on my own fears of flowers and what they meant to me as a child growing up. What was it that made little Kimmy cry when she saw a rose. / Her mother wondered as she saw this time and time again. / Little kimmy was just 5 and such a happy child. / But every time she saw a rose she broke down and cried. / At first her mother thought nothing of it maybe she got stuck on a thorn. / But when this happened time and time again, she took notice and asked her what was wrong. / She wouldn’t say what she felt she was just a little child. / So all she did was stand and look and start to cry. / Then one day her mother said were going to a doctor. / And off they went to see a woman who might get to the problem. / They sat in a big with room with pretty little pictures and the the woman would ask some questions and Kimmy sat real quiet. / This went on for quite awhile as Kimmy turned to 6. / And then one day a patient came with some bright red roses for the doctor. / And little Kimmy broke down crying and screamed out loud don’t let it be my mommy. / The doctor was in quite a shock as she took the child in the office. / And on this day little Kimmy said exactly what was the problem. / Its know that in the neighborhood where little Kimmy lives someone got shot and always killed at least 5 times a day. / Her cousin down the street was walking home from school one day, someone road by and shot him dead he was only 10. / And then the little girl named Marie she was playing in her yard 2 cars rode by and bullets flew and Marie was shot dead. / And then that night there was a fight at the local dance, someone got stabbed in the chest it was Kimmy’s older brother. / He died that night as they waited for the ambulance that never ever came. / And then on sunday that special day 2 men stood at her door, they wanted her father to fix their car he was a top mechanic. / While out in the front of the house her daddy’s bending over and then a car comes passing by with gang bangers drunk and noisy. / One man says hey my friend its sunday can you give us a break? / And then the banger pulls out a gun and shoots all three men dead. / Little Kimmy saw her daddy dead and lying in the streets. / His 2 friends close beside him died with him too on that sad sad sunday. / Then comes that day that kimmy knows too well for such a little child. / A rose is lying on their caskets then she starts to cry. / It seemed to little kimmy everyone that she knew had died. / And when they did someone would come and place a rose up on their casket. / As Kimmy sat in the doctors office saying what she thought. / The doctor took her by the hand and looked her in the eyes. / She smiled at little Kimmy and said she understood. / But deep inside she knew that was a lie, and thanked God she never would. / She waited for the moment when Kimmy didn’t cry and told her something that took away all the fear she had inside. / She said that rose that you see, is a present from that man above. / And when someone brings it to a casket it means that they are loved. / That red rose is a special flower its full of life’s compassion, and is the thing that we feel when someone’s life has ended. / Its not a bad thing that you see when your looking at it kimmy. / Its full of love and everything that we see as good. / Just think what it would be like if there was no red rose, then how would we show your daddy and your brother that they were truly loved. / So next time that you see one just look at it and say, I know you are my daddy’s friend in a special way and tell him that he’s loved!

The Little River Road is about 18 miles long. It runs between the Sugarland Visitors Center at the Gatlinburg entrance to the Smoky Mountains and the Wye in Townsend. Once you pass the road going to Elkmont Campground it snakes through the gorge along the sides of Little River. Its one of the more popular drives in the Smokies. Numerous pull offs offer unending possibilities to get out and explore the river. Fall colors can be spectacular. Along the route there is a picnic area, waterfalls, and hiking trails. The road may not be for the timid, not use to mountain roads. In some places you are on the edge of the river on one side and against a rock bluff on the other. It seems narrower than it looks and has room for motor homes to meet, so drive slow and enjoy. It is one of two ways to get to Cades Cove. From it you can also enjoy fly fishing, kayaking or just playing in the water. Tubers often dot the river on the Wye end in summer.

I had driven by the walkway several times in the past two weeks and knew I had to find a capture here somewhere. I finally decided the time was right with the fog so heavy. I walked the path and took the right fork and decided this was the most pleasing. The fog adds an incredible amount of depth to the field. The fall colors are what make the composition complete, though. I get a very ethereal feel from this scene. One of my favorites.

Beauty is an ecstasy; it is as simple as hunger. There is really nothing to be said about it. It is like the perfume of a rose: you can smell it and that is all.

I took this shot out in the side of my yard in Amherst, Virginia. I saw this guy hopping and went over for a shoot. He hopped into this leaf and stayed there for a few minutes while I got a few shots. I thought it was pretty neat how he blended in with the colors of the leaf so well. Natural camouflage. / Taken with my Canon Powershot SX110 IS / FEATURED IN A PLACE TO CALL HOME TOP TEN FEATURE IN THE FROG ON A LEAF CHALLENGE IN FABULOUS FROGGIES

Clematis from the Greek (klema) for branchlet. / There are over 400 wild varieties of native clematis, in fact most countries in the temperate regions of the northern hemisphere and to some extent in the southern hemisphere have species of clematis. For example, C. alpina is found in eastern Europe and C. cirrhosa in Mediterranean countries, C. vitalba in Britain, C. montana in India, C. lanuginosa in China, C. patens in Japan, C. aristata in Australia, C. afoliata in New Zealand and C. virginiana in America / Early plant collectors brought examples back to europe, which were soon to enrich it’s flora. One of the first to be introduced to England was C. viticella, which was brought from Spain in 1569. This was followed in 1596 by three other European species, C. cirrhosa, C. integrifolia and C. flammula. They were all used in hybridising programmes to produce new varieties. It was not until the 19th century that the stock for the large flowered clematis, which is so admired today was introduced from China, C. lanuginosa for example and C. patens from Japan. The Victorians took to clematis in a big way and the pioneering nursery of Jackmans once held a list of 343. Unfortunately the then little understood disease wilt, decimated the commercial stocks and it was not until after the second world war that nurseries were once more able to pursue serious large scale propagation. However the legacy of the Victorians does live on, many of the popular large flowered clematis available today come from the last century. /
