About This Website

This blog is intended to showcase my pictures or those of other photographers who have moved beyond the pretty picture and for whom photography is more than entertainment - photography that aims at being true, not at being beautiful because what is true is most often beautiful..

>>>> Comments, commentary and lively discussions, re: my writings or any topic germane to the medium and its apparatus, are vigorously encouraged.

civilized ku # 1023 ~ picture pretty

Sundown on Oregon Pond ~ Onchiota, NY - in the Adirondack PARK • click to embiggen
Not my usual cup of picture making tea, sunsets, that is. But, what the hell, I'm on vacation and it was my birthday so, throwing caution to the winds, I relaxed my normal standards and pictured merrily away.

Pano to come.

Fallen off the wagon?

You don't need to apologize for a pretty picture or feel guilty about it.

>>I'm on vacation and it was my birthday

You should feel that way everyday.

As Aerosmith would say, "livin' on the edge"

And at the end of the day (literally), you were just responding to the beauty of what was before you, as well as reflecting on the good feelings that the day had provided ~ there's no crime in that!

Nevertheless the image is instantly recognizable as yours. That's something I rarely achieve with my sundowns :D

Happy birthday!
