The sun sets behind clouds over the Pacific Ocean creating a shaft of sunlight shooting towards the heavens through a golden sky. The sculpture Ambassador's Portal is visible in the foreground. Photo by Robert Emond.

The Frangipani tree has a scented flower used in Polynesian lei making, yet the plant is actually endemic to tropical Latin America.

Color close up image of a pink and orange open flower. The plumeria, or frangipani, is most often seen in warm and tropical areas of the globe. One can make new plumeria trees from solitary cuttings; the one shown is a cutting taken many years ago from my grandparents’ home.

Ponderosa pines surround the crater at the top of the cinder cone, with mountains in the distance under a cloudy sky.

Looking east, and a bit south to the Cascade Range in Washington State. The greens in the field in the foreground are muted by frost, the trees and landscape mid-frame, obscured by fog. There's a golden glow above the mountain, the small pop of white is the sun reflecting off an aircraft.

Don't know if I'm breaking a rule here as I've set my sky to the white balance assigned in-camera, everything below was "corrected" by Capture One. In any event the outing became a "fog" theme as the curtain of fog rose to meet / cover the sunrise.

He built
a wall
around you~
a claim of
fortress for
his heart
while yours
belongs to
the sky
walls cannot
confine the
wings that
carry you
there is
no ceiling
for birds
of flight
