Spring Yellow.

I'm on a little road trip in California and every thing is spring shiny yellow.

Bountiful blossoms in every shade of sunshine: 

Canary, Buttermilk, Buttercup, Cream, 

Lemon, Afternoon Sunlight, Dandelion, Chiffon Dream,

Custard, Banana, Chick and Duckling, Bee,

Corn, Pencil, Taxi Cab, Autumnal Tree.

I hope your day is filled with golden light, a blossom or two

and colors that make you think in pictures.

Road Trip, Day Eighteen: Hiking in the Baylands.

Marshes, sweet smell of fennel, true blue skies, geese, ducks, egrets,

winding waterways, pillar art to balance on, and wings in flight.

Road Trip, Day Seventeen: Walkabout, Palo Alto, CA.

 I spent the morning on a long image hunt walk around my home town.

There were plant textures to capture, a sweet dead bird to wish well,

on old cabin to pretend to live in, my long time favorite curved roof house

to enjoy once again, and tulip magnolias and blue skies...

deep gratitude for a bit of spring.

Road Trip Day Twelve and Thirteen: Palo Alto, CA.

This is a smattering of images from the Palo Alto Cultural Center.

Wispy branch huts, ferns made from fabric and charcoal drawings,

paper ferns made by children, and colorful tumbled pottery used as a ground cover.
