A blue butterfly carcass I purchased in Peru this year.
Taken a few hours out of Lima on our way to Huanuco, Peru. It’s quite the spectacular drive. Unfortunately my old camera didn’t do as good of a job as I would have liked.
Located in the U.S. Supreme Court building, which was built in the early 1930s after the Court had met in many different places. This building was the first permanent place for them to meet since they had first convened. The oval staircase is an attraction in the building but unfortunately, tourists are not allowed to ascend it.
My grandparents’ old farm is full of old buildings like this dark red barn. The stacks of wood you see are cut from nearby forest, awaiting planing into lumber to be used in new homes. I played around with this until it had something of an antique look to it. Thoughts on this process are welcome!
My musically gifted sister at the piano. She got the music gene; I didn’t. :)
The dark colors in this shot kept reminding me of Gotham City and how it always seemed dark and colorless there. Taken in the exact same place as Hanging By a Moment, a bush right outside my front door.
The Old Post Office Building in Washington, D.C. has a very tall clock tower. Inside the tower, there is a tiny window where you can see the back of the clock face. We happened to be there at the right time, when the sun was shining through! Built in the late 1890s, this building served as a post office for only 15 years until it was considered outdated and inefficient. There were many attempts to tear it down but a petition or protest always saved it. Today it is a shopping and eating center. You can sit inside on the ground floor, eat your Chinese food, and look up almost all the way to the top.
This was taken in an art museum in Chicago. I would love to shoot more of this kind of thing in the future. (In this one, all I did was invert the center panel.)
It’s not as close-up as it looks…it’s actually a HUGE leaf. :)
This beautiful stormy scene presented itself as I was overlooking the Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs. (If you look closely, you can see the Kissing Camels near the lower right-hand corner.) Hard to imagine it’s in the middle of a huge city. Update 20-June: Exciting news! This photo was chosen to be published in Gaia – The Living Planet, a book compiled of imagery and poetry from within the RB community. I’m so excited to receive my copy in the mail soon!
Last one of these, I promise! Also see Twirled and Twirled Again. (I’m real creative with names and stuff.) This time I kept seeing it as some undersea creature/plant, so I gave it a green tint. Please see my Etsy listing for this image – and purchase a pearlescent metallic print of this beautiful photograph!
Once again I don’t have a good title for this one. Just a daisy after the watering can took its toll. Also see Juicy: another shot of the same flower.
A shot of some flower stems and buds that reminded me of space and the cosmos. And then of CS Lewis and his Space Trilogy, for some reason. I have yet to read it. But I love the name of that book. Please see my Etsy listing for this image – and purchase a pearlescent metallic print of this mysterious image. This photo is seen in two of my calendars – please take a look at them! / Everyday Mysteries A Bouquet
The second in the Bleeding Hearts series. Okay, so there’s only one so far and I just realized I had enough to make a three-image series. :) I like this one quite a bit. The flowers were almost white to begin with and I just altered the color and added the vignette. Also see Heartstrings.
A beautiful backlit flower reminds me of an angel’s wing…maybe it is a glimpse of that heavenly glory. This was my first experiment with specific/intentional lighting. I shone a flashlight behind this flower in a dark room. I was pretty happy with the results, although the process was a lot more tedious than I’d have guessed. Please see my Etsy listing for a slightly different version of this image – you have the option to purchase a pearlescent (metallic) print. Would look very nice framed... /
The first image in the Dreamcatcher series. These were taken early one foggy and soggy morning as the sun rose to shine through the dewdrops. Please see my Etsy listing for this image – and purchase a pearlescent metallic print of this beautiful image. Please take a look at the calendar Everyday Mysteries, which features this photograph. The two others in the Dreamcatcher series are Prose and Meteor.
A glamorous sunset – or was it a sunrise? – in North Carolina’s Outer Banks…Point Harbor to be exact. / . / Also taken in North Carolina: / A Sandy Stairway To Heaven / Rhapsody In Blue /
Light does some crazy things… If you like this image, you’ll appreciate my calendar Still Life & Structural. Please, take a look!
This was taken in North Carolina this summer. I like the moody, stormish feel of it. This shot can be seen in my calendar Everyday Mysteries. Take a look!
This was taken at the downtown loft where my church college group meets. On this day we were tearing down walls to make more room. If I’d taken a picture slightly to the left, you’d see mounds of insulation, drywall, wiring and 2×4s littering the room. It was a huge mess – hence the dust creating the wonderful effect near the window.
Is it flying through space or peering through a macro lens? I can’t really explain what I feel about this one. It kind of creeps me out. But I really really love it, feel a part of it. Please see my Etsy listing for this image – and purchase a pearlescent metallic print of this beautiful photograph!
Wildflowers in Colorado’s Winter Park. Taken in July of this year. I needed a break from winter and gray drudgery… Please see my Etsy listing for this image – and purchase a pearlescent metallic print of this beautiful photograph!
