As 2012 comes to its end--
a sampling of things seen over the past twelve months
through the lens of my iPhone and edited with snapseed...
Landscapes & seasons--
Arizona, Washington, New Mexico, Georgia
====================================================
January:
--looking down into Sabino Canyon, from January 1st 2012 New Year's Day hike;
February:
--Spring came early to the Sonoran desert
after a rainy winter;
by the end of February there were poppies already blooming...
March:
--an evening hike in Catalina State Park
April:
--prickly pear cactus blossoms
May:
--saguaros in bloom;
(this shot got printed in the Tucson paper)
June:
--the beginnings of the monsoon in the desert,
saguaro fruit ripening and evening rainbow...
July:
--back to the Pacific Northwest;
a summer hike up to Colchuck Lake, beneath Dragontail Peak and Aasgard Pass,
Central Cascades, WA
August:
--road-trip through New Mexico;
Enchanted Mesa near the Acoma Pueblo
(playing with COLORSPLASH)
September:
--rain pouring, like a cosmic bucket;
I had my iPhone with me on a morning run...
late summer monsoon over Tucson
October:
--faces in Tubac,
Mexican sculpture suspended from the ceiling,
Elvira's restaurant
November:
--first foray into the serendipitous surreal,
the simple act of symmetry revealing the unexpected face,
reflection in Sabino Canyon
(using PICFRAME for mirroring)
December:
--surreal along the Savannah River,
running on the GA/SC border;
cold at the water's edge...
================================================
And, over the past year, three photos of mine have been winners
in a few of AFAR.COM's travel highlight contests, all iPhone shots:
Landscapes and food--iPhone always at hand, eyes always seeing...
Fantastic set of shots - a real treat to see.
