Notes to Self. Inspiration


 

Inspiration comes like a breeze. It's like a little spark of curiosity.

***

For the past few months I have been looking at the sunset photos from a local photographer with stunning and colorful sky effects. These photographs were taken on the Bear River MBR and looked more like abstractions, where the sky was a flaming "sea".

I really wanted to see this sky, but did not dare to find myself in the desert slowly sinking into darkness.

***

The most unpredictable thing happened when, having overcome my fear and finding myself in the desert before sunset, I was suddenly struck not by the colors of the blazing sky, but by the silhouettes of trees bathed in a golden glow. Their mysterious, intriguing silhouettes and their timeless beauty were indescribable.

Generally, life is good.

  1. Imagino tus emociones al encontrarte en esa situación, en mitad del desierto y con la tarde decayendo casi cosida a la noche y viendo esos arbustos ardiendo ante ese cielo maravilloso con esa luz que todo lo convierte en silueta, hasta el vuelo de las aves que salen por la derecha de la foto. Tiene que ser una experiencia digna de vivirse atendiendo al silencio y la quietud de todo lo demás. Una toma de conciencia de lo grandes que somos y al tiempo lo insignificantes ante tamoya visión. Enhorabuena.
    Un abrazo

  4. El instante preciso de luz para destacar al contraluz ese otro instante en el que las aves avanzan hacia el árbol. Una fotografía auténticamente bella.
    Un fuerte abrazo y feliz año nuevo.
