moab to powell

been awhile lots of changes going on...went on an 8 day river trip down the Colorado. put in at Potash, Utah take out Hite, Utah the northern tip of lake powell. incredibly beautiful, photos are about 75% expressive of what i actually saw...hampered by sand in the camera playing with the lense and exposure. a couple of rapids, gentle and challenging at the same time. lots of flat water, sand, reflections, sun, shadow, sky, stars, rocks, fossils, sand, beer, george stranahan whiskey, sand, water, music, sand, and and and silence.



RED MEMORIES LINGERING IN SANDSTONE EDDIES
SUNLITE WATER FALLS LINE THE RIM
SPLITTING ROCK WALLS INTO
LIGHT AND SHADOW/DARK
Shade
Shape of the recipient
Shape of the shadow
Shape of the light is life
Shadows are given character
Orb splitting stone

river trippin...of course



Yellow orange curtain/band sliding/slipping down the/a rock wall
Expanding day filling the canyon
Reveal(ing)ancient sunlight (fossils) locked in lake beds
Red memories lingering in sandstone eddies
(red memories of you)
life overflowing its river bed/banks/boundaries
surface breaking releasing rhythms/tension
of the flowing
of the broken hearts lying/strewn(ing) on the canyon floor
calm silent waters reflecting the impending day

distilled
MUD

River trippin...of course



Cirrus clouds seriously building
Light sparkling vision bodies
Sparks in your life
Sun on the water moving life
Sparks in the midnight
Fire
Shattering
Stillness
Upon you touching my life
How you touched my life
