my finger's numbness
moments deep within winter
sunlight peeks through clouds
poetry, prose, and photography

my finger's numbness
moments deep within winter
sunlight peeks through clouds

the beauty of dusk
sunlight dips behind mountains
fiery red sky

such a graceful sight
as sun moves down the mountain
night’s beauty gathers
This is my contribution to the Fandango One Word Challenge for today: “such”. Not the easiest word to create from, I must say.
I took this photo a few days ago along the waterfront of Edmonds, WA, just a short drive from my house. It’s one of my favorite places.

under the sun, between trains
beside calm waters
I just finished up winter quarter, so I was able to spend the day as I wished. Today’s the projected last day of sun for a while, so I opted for a waterside walk today. Edmonds is one of my favorite places, so off I went.

walk along the waterfront
filled with memories
Most of my life orbited the Edmonds waterfront, just north of Seattle. My grandparents lived here. So many memories of walking with my grandfather here, sometimes riding the ferry. He loved talking with everyone, hearing their stories. His gift of listening appreciated.

into the sea
I took this photo at Marina Beach, along the Edmonds waterfront earlier this week. It’s one of my favorite place on earth.
Shot with my Samsung S9, I’m quite amazed at the quality of images that I get from my phone. I also wonder how much better my photos would be if I used a better phone, or, egads, an actual camera.

cold air upon my face
spring begins
I’ve been using Canva for a lot of my photo editing lately, mainly since I do a lot on my Samsung S9. Since I’m spending a lot of time in front of my computer right now, it seems like a good reason to open up Photoshop and play in there. A quick little piece to show I remember how to use it.

the wind blowing cold
painful to fingers and face
