Happy Earth Day Video Of Boise River

April 22, 2015 by owfotografik

Happy Earth Day I stood for a few minutes on the banks of the Boise River and captured the sound of the water and the birds. I really love the sound of running water and it is such a joy to have the Greenbelt as an option to walk along and just be in nature. The sound of running water and a pretty picture of a path. Listen to the Boise river and be transported by the sounds of nature […]

July 17th 2014 Carlton Complex Wildfire Plume Of Smoke

August 31, 2014 by owfotografik

On July 14th 2014, we were driving home through a Thunderstorm and witnessed multiple lightning strikes and heard the ominous rumblings of thunder all around us. Passing through Carlton we saw a fresh spot of fire on a hillside visible from Highway 153. I was struck by the idea that this small fire might turn into something much larger if it was not put out soon. Little did I know at the time there were many more small fires started […]

You can’t depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus. ~Mark Twain

A Cloudy Afternoon Abstract Landscape Painting I am looking to the sky in the spring and wondering just what it is that is looking back at me. I see an explosion of sunshine behind a very interesting looking cloud. This cloud reminds me of a flying hippopotamus. I see its large squarish face and massive body flying through the sky. Where is this very large imaginary animal flying to and what will await it once it gets there? I love […]

If you reveal your secrets to the wind, you should not blame the wind for revealing them to the trees. ~Khalil Gibran

July 7, 2013 by owfotografik

Tall pine trees stand as sentinels watching over the river flows gently by. The secrets that these trees have encountered are numerous and salacious I am sure. Or maybe not. The souls that have lingered here for a short time may have been virtuous and unassuming. The leaves and the water tell no tales as they are rooted to the earth and silent indeed. A tree is a silent reminder that all who live have roots. Deep and hidden and […]

Life is just a fantasy, can you live this fantasy life? ~Aldo Nova

July 3, 2013 by owfotografik

What do you see here? I am loving the blue color I have invoked. It sits calmly in the center of the screen just waiting for your eye to wander there. What is is and where did it come from. Is this blue void going to swallow us whole or just wait patiently until our eyes are ready to melt into it. Explore all of the textures and color variations. I have painted many wondeful mysteries into this scene. I […]
