Weekly Photo Challenge: Evanescent
ev·a·nes·cent [evəˈnes(ə)nt]
adjective
- Soon passing out of sight, memory, or existence; quickly fading or disappearing.
The Daily Post, Krista Stevens
The still life tableaus I find at the beach are evanescent; I have to capture them at that moment, before the wind and the surf sweep them away. Their fleeting existence is part of what intrigues me and inspires me to look for interesting juxtapositions of color, form, and texture.

Wordless Wednesday: Newport, Oregon
More pics, as promised, of the fabulous Oregon Coast – specifically, Newport.
Wordless Weekend: Yaquina Bay Bridge
Last weekend, I spent a couple of beautiful, stunningly clear and warm days happily exploring this fabulous bridge and the area around it. It’s a lovely bridge and I had a happy time searching for different views of it – from the North, from the South, walking across it, directly beneath it, through foliage…
Here are some of the views for you…

The Challenge:
This week, share a photo of a satisfying pairing from your own life….You can mix and match places, people, objects, and activities that represent your idea of a harmonious, pleasing combination. ~Ben Huberman, The Daily Post
Bright leaf, beachy grasses, feathers, sand. I love how these found objects create a unified whole.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Graceful II
Ornamental grasses strike me as elegant and graceful: swaying mildly in breezes, never clunky; softening hard edges through gentle curves of stem and plume.

Weekly Photo Challenge: H2O ii
Those of you who follow this blog regularly know that I love water. It is so plentiful here in Oregon in its myriad forms, and I am drawn to it, both for quiet, contemplative moments and as a subject for photography. I love its reflective and refractive qualities, its motion, its stillness, its seemingly contradictory gentleness and strength.
