The moon yesterday morning:

The moon today:

at every gate
a celebration...
summer moon

Autumn mood

For Shadow Shot Sunday:

child's fingers
trace on grandma's hands
the liver spots of aging

Skywatch - a beautiful week

This first picture was taken on May 31st, the morning our newest family member, Tyler Jet, was born:

"shown a flower
a small baby
opens its mouth"

~Seifu-ni

Mid-week blue sky with contrails from jets: 

 Tyler's middle name is Jet because his father served in

the Air Force, stationed in Tucson where he met Victoria,

and they are fans of the NY Jets football team.

This morning at 5:15AM:

"I’ll tell you how the sun rose --
A ribbon at a time --"

~Emily Dickinson
