Nature’s first green is gold,

Her hardest hue to hold.

Her early leaf’s a flower;

But only so an hour.

Then leaf subsides to leaf.

So Eden sank to grief,

So dawn goes down to day.

Nothing gold can stay

Robert Frost

Fireworks at the unveiling of the new stadium. It was pretty distracting driving into town literally right beside where they were being launched, but luckily I had time to drive up to the mountain top and watch the display with the city lights dotting the background.

The view from my dorm window! I love where I'm living, this year on campus and just in general. It would be really hard to live somewhere flat after being surrounded by gorgeous mountain ranges all the time.

You answer us with awesome deeds of righteousness,
O God our Savior,
the hope of all the ends of the earth
and of the farthest seas,

who formed the mountains by your power,
having armed yourself with strength,

who stilled the roaring of the seas,
the roaring of their waves,
and the turmoil of the nations.

Psalm 65:5-7

Nature's cathedral.

On photography assignment again in the courtyard of a local coffee shop. The band was standing in the darkest corner... So this photo of a Christmas-light-entangled tree trunk is one of the better pics of the night. It makes me think of Asian word forms.

A drawing for a genealogy workshop ad. It looks cooler inverted.

There was a torrential downpour, and then the sky turned to gold.
