やった、印税で年間3,000円×4年間もらえる。これでもう、つらい仕事を辞めてもいいんだ！　（錯乱）

いやでも本当にありがたいことです。若いころの自分自身に言っても信用しないだろうなあということを経験できるのは、年を経てなお生きていることの面白さのひとつだと思うのです。

Looking up at the trees in the forest. Somehow, it feels a little eerie.

Red-colored acorn

This was taken using the partial color mode on a NEX-5R. The cracked acorn had turned a beautiful, vivid red. I’ve heard that this is due to anthocyanins. I hope it grows into a big tree someday.

Photograph of alpine scenery with colorful geology under orange sunset clouds. The scene encompasses a high ridgeline with red peaks and some snow. In front of the peaks, attentions is grabbed a a large crag of mostly gray stone banded with orange. A dramatic geologic fold is visible at left forming a tight s-curve of orange banding. Below the crag can be seen an alpine lake with its outlet stream looking very small as it flows into a steep stony canyon.

...and because someone is going to wonder why I didn't include something for scale... it wasn't exactly feasible.

Landscape photograph of a small desert stream reaching the end of its flow. The setting is a wide valley of barren desert, with only a few shrubs growing, a dark mountain range in the background under mostly cloudy morning sky. The foreground is a sandy wash with crinkly dry silt patterns. The pale blue stream flows into this wash, braiding out into branching fingers as the flow ends just in front of the camera.

A color photo of a river flowing swiftly with soft whitecaps around big rocks. The river is a blue green color. Photo by me on my Android camera phone

“Have you,” he asked once, “have you also learned this secret from the river: that time does not exist?”

#flowing #eck #blueskyartshow

I have some pictures on show this weekend, for a very good cause. Please come along if you can.

The black-and-white photo depicts a stubble field with a forest edge on the right side of the image. The rows of stubble curve outward from the foreground, initially bending slightly to the right and then to the left before disappearing into the background. In the background, several bare trees border the field.

Throwback on February

THE COLORADO RIVER DOES NOT REACH 2030 A Thought Exercise in Western Water, from the Near Future

Deadpan near-future (very near) water collapse sci-fi. Well worth a read, and if you follow this stuff you'll know that nothing in here is at all far-fetched.
