The Sky's the Limit

Ah, it has been so long since I last posted! Since arriving back from visiting my family, my time has been pretty much consumed by work, clay classes and various other things that need my attention... not much time/energy left for blogging. But driving home from class tonight I caught sight of this huge Lenticular Cloud formation over the Mountains of Santa Fe, and I wanted to share it :). I didn't have my camera with me, but was hoping this formation would stick around long enough for me to get home to get it & luckily it did, though let me tell you, these pictures do not do justice the scene as I observed it.  This series was taken in a range of 25 minutes or so~ from blue skies, to sunset glow, to dusk. I so appreciate the beauty of nature.

Nature's Gifts

"If the sight of the blue skies fills you with joy, if a blade of grass springing up in the fields has the power to move you, if the simple things of nature have a message that you understand, rejoice, for your soul is alive."

~Eleonora Duse

The Spring quarter is officially over! Which means no more ceramics or printmaking posts for quite some time. I've enrolled for the fall quarter, but due to financial & other concerns (like is it the best use of my time & resources here on this planet? how will it benefit me in terms of making a living? do i really want to live here for 2 years? etc, etc.) that could all change by the time fall rolls around. SOOOOO! In the meantime, I am once again returning to my photography roots! (Ceramics & Photography being my two favorite artistic loves!) The skies were absolutely beautiful the other night & I was lucky enough to get a few good shots... so I thought I'd share. For those of you that know me... you know that in addition to my love of nature... I also LOVE a good quote! And there are so many wonderful, inspiring quotes out there... so it's highly likely that you will be seeing them paired with various photographs I'll be taking. I hope everyone out there is having a wonderful week, & thanks for stopping by!
