Last night's Storm

Last night we experienced our biggest storm yet, in the metal house, it started with quarter inch hail and plenty of very loud thunder and rain on and off all night. It was crazy night.

Here is the sky this morning...

And are the skies from yesterday... A calmer morning!

But you can see the storm start to build, it actually rained from about 4 pm.

Capturing the early morning sun

I need to re-visit Van Gogh, to capture that morning rise in a painterly fashion - not there yet!

That's why they call it a practice! And I need more... Always.

CounterForms: 365 West in great company!

Today, Hal Cannon and I visited the CounterForms Exhibit at the J. Willard Marriott Library at the University of Utah SLC.

I found my '365 West' installation piece in company with many fine works. Hal took some pictures with his iPhone. I am humbled to be in such great company and jazzed with inspiration.

And of course, a weekend in a metropolitan city helps. So sorry Steve is missing this.

Altocumulus Undulatus in the morning...

Screens are off the east windows, as now the Easterly sunrise is no longer intensely heating the concrete and warming the house so much it is harder to keep the house cool in the 100 plus temperatures, September is here and the gradual cooling off has begun. As the days shorten we begin the cycle of (and eventually need) the mornings rays to heat our home, this next month or so we are in the ambient equinox period, inside and out, less fuel to cool and no heat needed, yet.

We now have our free range beautiful view back from our beds. I can now see the sunrise in the morning (as above) and the amazing sky at night pass over our home. This week, we saw an intense Milky Way, before the waning moon had risen, and I was woke yesterday by the brightest Venus, despite the moon then being up. What a place.
