Baby Porcupine by senephia

This little guy caught my attention near in Ptarmigan Valley, Alaska. One of that year’s babies… and still so fresh looking that I will admit, I wanted to pet him. Good thing I didn’t try!

Cold…It was cold.

Reflection of the freedom in nature.
Seeking Inspiration (Mixed Media Oils)- by Robert Dye

This piece, produced with oil washes, colored pencils, and oil pastels, is a commentary on the intrinsic, artistic nature of human beings. It transgresses in an upward direction, playing on the senses and forms of communication of the artist (the mind, the mouth, the eyes, and ears). Also, there is a movement and use of symbiotic lines, and the echoing of shapes. The standing figure on the upper right portion is enveloped by white light which represents Inspiration. This work was created in 2001.
Bosque by Twilight Star Trails by FortPhoto

This is a 15 minute exposure of star trails above one of the main pools at Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge in New Mexico. I took this when it first looked fully dark outside and I was still able to catch color from the remains of the earlier sunset. The color is as it came out of the camera with noise reduction applied. I was amazed at my luck in catching an Iridium flare! “Iridium flares”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_flare are brilliant glints or flares created on predictable intervals by the constellation Iridium communication satellites interacting with the sun. You can tell the hotter stars by their streak’s blue color, with cooler ones coming in more red. What amazed me is that star trails would come in this good so soon after sunset. I attribute the nearly new moon and the low light pollution of this area in New Mexico. This was taken at ISO 400 at 28mm f/2.8 utilizing long-time exposure noise reduction in camera and further selective noise reduction via Neat Image in post.
