lifted up sap in noiseless streams, opened petals, and sucked out scents in invisible jets and breathings.”

You take amazing photos. The Pollock photo, in particular reminds me of how I felt when I saw his work "live" for the first time at San Francisco's Museum of Modern Art last year. I just stood there and took him in.

I've posted my Wordless Wednesday entry here and hope you'll drop by for a visit:

Nice - I really like the colours in your sunset!

I guess the sun picture could double as a sunrise and a sunset. All I know is it really set my day off nicely when I was walking out to the truck to go to work. I am lucky I live on top of a hill.
If I could just get my neighbor to lower his house a little :lol: I would be able to make some panoramic pictures.

Thanks for visiting and I hope everyone has a Happy WW and a great rest of the week.

I saw a huge Jackson Pollock painting at the U. of Iowa museum of all places. Apparently the taught there once and left them a large painting. The sunset is quite impressive. Must be the pollution from China?
