Cindy Knoke comes to us from Arches National Park in Utah, sharing her exquisite photography. Southern Utah is red rock country, and the red earth always calls me home… ❤

Alien Talking Heads.

Sedna’s Queens. Obviously we are not in Sedna, but we may as well be. I also made up these names.

The surface of Sedna. Sedna is thought to be the most distant dwarf planet in our solar system and was discovered in 2003.

The enthroned Queen. We are in Arches National Park in Utah which looks like a cross between Petra, Egypt, and some alien world.

The Four Pharoahs.

Valley of the Kings.

Tower of Babel.

Balancing Brain.

Climbing Devils Thumb. (Click to enlarge the photo and you can see the technical climber about thrity feet from the summit.)

Anteojos. (Glasses in Spanish)

Six-shooter.
Cheers to you from Arches National Park in Utah~
We are traveling between Arches and Canyonlands National Parks, and Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park, so internet is spotty, but I will touch base with you when I can.

Fall in the Butchart Gardens,

is a visual feast.

As tree leaves turn,

flowers burn,

triumphant,

in their in their fall finale.

An autumnal pageant,

before winter sleep.

Cheers to you from the Butchart Gardens in Victoria Canada~

Soaring Eagles,

touch earth,

for a time,

but never really,

leave the sky.

Their home is always,

in the clouds.
Cheers to you the stunning eagles of Vancouver Island~

Sunburst~

Stunning images by Cindy Knoke. Would love to see this as a children’s story … 🙂

The sunflowers grew tired of growing in their garden.

So they picked up long legs and walked away.

After traveling awhile, they arrived at The Holler, hot and bothered.

They realized too late, as we often do, how good they had it in their garden.

I put them in water, and took their photos, cheering them up considerably.

I hope their sunburst cheers you too~

Note: the color in these photos is not enhanced. I have been experimenting with food coloring in flower water. Blue makes some incredible effects which I will show you later. If you’re interested check out:
