    … is One’s way to describe this sunset image and she decided she liked it so much that she became part of the image. I’ve spent a substantial portion of the past several days going through the portfolio looking for skies that I can use with the sky replacement tool in Photoshop; the program comes with many stock photos, but I opted to delete them all and use my own sky photos for those rare instances when I want to replace the sky in an image. This is a shot that I took from just outside my front door exactly ten years ago today during another beautiful monsoon season. The sun had already set behind House Mountain the sky was aflame.

    The monsoon storm in the photo below was taken about two weeks after the shot above and a full on monsoon storm(s) was in progress. I was a few miles NNW of Cottonwood and shooting more or less towards the N. The large storm/rain cell was maybe a mile or so in diameter and dumping heavily on Casner Mountain and on the back side in Sycamore Canyon and also into the valley on this side. Numerous other cells were roving around the plateau as well. On the horizon to thee left of the big cell is Sitgreaves Mountain … Kendrick Peak and the San Francisco Peaks were behind the rain cells that were dumping.

    Into a new week and wow … that is cool … breathing, smiling and the opportunity to do amazing things … a moment at a time. Share a smile with someone today … you’ll get one back!

    Cheers,

    I see there is a good deal of grandiloquence in my book—my friends and foes have told me.
     
    I think it must be true, for the is a good deal of grandiloquence in me—and in nature also;
     
    I saw a sunset last evening that was a gross imposition upon modesty;
     
    And no artist would have had the hardihood to paint that western sea of flame as it was there painted on the curtain of the coming night.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
