Call and Response with the Sun*
Sun, will you shine in my sky?
Lord, yes indeed, I will try.
Sun, will you shine, brightening my sky?
Lord, yes indeed, I will try.
Sun, will you shine in my sky?
Lord, yes indeed, I will try.
Sun, my sweet sun, will your light fill this world?
Yes, Lord! Yes, indeed, I will try.
*Lyrics composed while sittin’ in the sun.

A few blossoms found by the seashore this weekend. They suddenly glowed in a shaft of afternoon light.
One of those unexpected sights that made many a person pause, and one older gentleman even exclaimed, “What a glorious day it has turned out to be.”
Winter’s Light

As much as I complain about the cold, I love winter’s light coming through the windows each morning.
How it shines on the walls and illuminates the most ordinary things making them extraordinary …
revealing fragile beautiful intricacies …
and delicate beauty.

Here are a few of the things inspiring me of late:
Sunlight shining through Japanese Maple leaves.
Japanese Noh robes as described in the book, Patterns and Poetry.
And always, always, always, trees – their green leaves, bare branches and beautiful barks.
Rainbow Ripples

So one day sunlight came through a window and shone through a glass of water that I had left on a table. A scientist friend of mine explained that what I captured were caustics and that the ripples in the water were acting like lenses refracting the light around. I think I understand most of that. Mostly I appreciated the simple beauty of the lines on the paper and the opportunity to play around with the images later on the computer.
