Nov 1, 2005

Nov 1, 2005
morning along the American River
with plein air painters again
warmer this week, still air
more clouds that come & go in front of the sun
crickets and birds chirp
traffic roars by on the bridge overhead


Overexposed so I try again


better but still a little hot - usable.

A child stands on the edge of the bank throwing stones into the water. Later an artist sets up her easel near the same spot.



Looking into the sun.



Light is often used as a reference to God - how appropriate this image is to communicate how He shines through His creation.

A pair of geese hang out in the reeds nearby making soft noises to each other, feeding & preening. Kildeer cry in the distance and a yellow jacket buzzes around the river rocks underfoot.





The pair of geese are near another grouping of reeds now, stretching their necks to nibble at the seedpods at the tips of the reeds that arch out over the water.
