Lightning and Stars (Haiku and Pic)

Cloud furnace ignites
Lightyears away, fire looks on
Chaos, Peace, share stage

There was a lightning storm in the distance and stars above so I figured I’d
see If I could get both,
I did.

Picture of Owl with runny nose (and haiku)

Fake owl on the prowl

Protecting the world from geese

You want a tissue?

Yes, it’s Hop Harvest Time! (and a haiku)

Took advantage of the warm weather to get some hops off the bine.
Hop Haiku:

Aromatic cone
Scent of fall, essence of beer
The flavor of gold…

Sepia and Blue – Inspiration From a Mood Board

I put out a request on Twitter for a moodboard and interior designer, Heather Jenkinson  obliged.   My purpose was to use it as inspiration for a tune.  Well, here’s one of the moodboards she sent.  It was the first one I opened so it’s the one I used. 

Here’s the tune that came from the above.  It’s called Sepia and Blue.

Thoughts?

Two Turtles, Three Views, One Haiku

 

Air and water meet
From suits of armor we gaze
Sharing through our shells

(Came across these in Volo Bog)

The Planet Mars in Leo, Pictures and a Haiku

I took these pics tonight at various magnifications, racing against time and high altitude clouds.

Regulus was always one of my favorite stars and most noticeable for me as I was growing up.    Maybe it was because I was a "Leo", but the memory of learning that star as a youngster sticks in my mind.  The memory itself is vague, but the feeling of it being a favorite is what makes me smile.

And Mars – The Red Warrior of the Skies.

Wandering red god

Approaches to fight the Prince

A battle of dance!
