Finding Beauty Everywhere


I love to find beauty in unexpected places...and I'm never disappointed.

We, you and I, just have to take the time to look. It's Everywhere!!

I'm interested in all living things which means All Things. There is beauty everywhere. We just have to slow down enough to find it...to see it. I believe there is nothing Man can do to match the beauty found in Nature...and not only the beauty. Nature can outdo anything man can think of in the way of destruction too. Man is very small, the works of man are very small. We need to remember this. But Nature never sends its force after anything or anyone out of anger or hatred or desire to conquer or own. Nature has many lessons for us all.

Now You See It, Now You Don't






Folks around Puget Sound have been seeing a new phenomenon lately. Folks in New Mexico and Arizona et al see it a lot. It's rain that falls but evaporates before hitting the ground.

That's amazing Puget. It looks as though it's almost painted onto the picture.

Hi FM! It was really strange. The air has been so dry here lately that it's been happening a lot according to local TV news.

Great shot. We see that all the time when we're hiking in Utah but I've never seen it in the northwest.

It's called virga, btw.

Hi AndiF! They're fairly rare here I think. We heard about them on TV and then saw this one and another a few days ago. Virga? Good name for it.
Thanks for stopping by.
