Dorothea Lange — Los Angeles Times — Camera as an instrument
“The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.”
— Dorothea Lange
A Sharing of Space
A sharing of space
Where there is no space at all
Sunlight and shadow
Singleton
Multiplicity
Is a singleton pattern
Filtered through our mind
Twilight Dance
Summer performance (Not one and not two)
Dragonflies and mosquitos
Dance in the twilight
Rhythms
Rhythms heard and felt
Quiet as loud as thunder
Night sound in summer
No Resistance
A clean burning stove
Heats the morning air
No resistance
No Separation
A clean burning stove
The mountains and the valley
No separation (Inseparable)
Light
The moon shines upon
Us with the light of the sun
As only it can
Tracks
Through the field of snow
A mouse scampers and leaves tracks
For us to follow
The Symphony Begins
A coyote cries
And the symphony begins
More sounds of winter
A Well Earned Rest
Frozen water hangs
From the edge of the boulder
A well earned rest
A Sound of Winter
The ski binding creaks
With the snow under the ski
A sound of winter
Again and Again
Snow falls on the road
Only to be pushed away
Again and again
Ready
Leaves hang from the tree
Colors vibrant in the fall
Ready to move on
Transforming
Leaves fall from the tree
Transforming before my eyes
Into next year’s soil
Carl Sagan — Apple Pie and the Universe
“If you wish to create an apple pie from scratch, you must first create the whole universe.”

Sharing Space Again
Sunlight on the tree
Or is it the other way?
Sharing space again
Together as One
Water on the trail
The trail under the water
Together as one
Summer Excitement
Wind through the tree tops
Ruffle the leaves of each birch
Summer excitement
Shadows
Shadows of a fern
Arranged on the forest floor
And on the stone too
