Lens-Artists Photo Challenge this week is natural light. Featured image is early morning sun on a frosty landscape. Below, the light flooding in the window overexposes the image. Can you see the woodpecker I was trying to capture?

Here the daylight was just perfect to capture the contrast of colours:

Light breaking through the clouds on this very grey Winter day lends an almost Gothic air to the photo.

Love your frosty winter scenes V.J. they remind me of Currier and Ives scenes from Christmases past. I must agree, there is always something to discover!

I really like these studies in light. I do see the woodpecker at the feeder.

  Thanks Liz. My husband won’t go out with his camera unless the light is just right, but I think there is always something to discover.

Not Dead Yet

There is safety in apart-ment living;would corral the little ones, declareresponsibility, obligations as a maskfor this self-banishing compulsion… except that I am lying prone, exposed –brains spilling onto concrete – shadowsrevealing the darkness of my condition,hopelessly locked in physical inertia. I am an unwitting contributor toscientific (and pseudo) probing:audacious autopsies pronouncingconclusive evidence of motives. Too […]

That Kid

Not programmed to comply –cannot tolerate oppression:a pressure cookerready to explode Do-gooders sit upstraight and smileencouragement:I slouch defiance Don’t ask me to respectthat which is disrespectful –my fuse is shortof that I’m certain Don’t slot me;leave me –creative inspirationis not lacking here I’m a free agenta incorrigible scamp –authority doesn’t scare me’cause I’m beyond control.

Undefendable

Every child bears the sparkof eternity’s promise…Where’s the threat in that? What mechanism of hateequates slaughterof innocents with justice? This is society’s bane –the unconscionable policiesof greed lacking accountability (Tuesdays I borrow from Twitter @Vjknutson. Image my own)
