Return to the Rainbow Rocks

Subscribe




As you may have seen in the Byteful Gallery, I returned to the riverbank not long ago. Time and time again, I have realized that one can always learn from returning to a place one has photographed before because almost everything has changed:

  • The light (caused by the time of day, season, and cloud cover)
  • The temperature (which gives way to other interesting effects)
  • Placement of objects themselves (by animal life or even human intervention)

On this occasion, the cold had struck and much was frozen. After approaching my old photographic subjects, I began to realize just how much the light had changed. It seemed colder, grayer, and perhaps sadder. I did find a few gems, though, such as a Tiny Pine Twig on the yellow bench. Rest assured I did not put the twig there – I only photograph what I see. The rainbow rocks in the sand didn’t look colorful this time, but those on the edge of the river were beautiful. A tiny ice shelf formed a veil over some pebbles, and reminded me of Saturn’s rings.

Amazing what one can find in the tiny details of nature.

Enjoy.
