gold leaf …

sticks in snow …

I enjoy doing these monochromatic images very much. Most have been taken in either my backyard or in a small field bordering a forest at my university. Wandering around gives me badly needed exercise, both for the body and my spirit. The days may be cold when these images are shot, but I find the process so very peaceful. Cheers, all.

N780AS – a different flower

One of the unexpected finds of our ramble around New Mexico was the discovery of stored air frames at the Roswell International Airport. There are organizations at the air field that store, scrap and refit mid-life commercial aircraft. It was a cold day and the snow was flying so no one was around to care if we walked up to the fence lines. This image is a Boeing 747-400 series currently owned by AerSale Inc. Look behind the cut to see it in it’s glory days.
