Leaving Boulder, CO a mighty rain storm arrived as I set out for my flight over the clouds to New York City.  Fat drops came wavering down and from the grass we danced.  From the car eyes drank in the rare green of surrounding country side.  Farewell tall mountains.  The clouds brewed above and let out bursts of fury.  Hail, rain, heavy drops, and

Had a short visit to Boulder Colorado and got to catch the leaves changing all around town, displaying their fall colors. I particularly enjoyed watching each day as the color spread and deepened on this one tree:

Frozen Sunday Walk

Sunday morning, cold in boulder, heading down the creek path to see the world. A frozen bubbling is my first muse. That incredible team of sculptors – wind, water, wave, cold. Making dollops, bubbles on the twigs and reaching out to form a shelf at the edge of the creek. Onwards down the path, the cat-tail and those magical foothills of Colorado. The Mountains rise up from the flat land, cool in their steep yet tree covered poise. A glimpse here and there of the Harsh Peaks beyond, snow and rock is all they hold.

An end of winter, spring investigation of cloud formations in Boulder Colorado. Inspired by my course Flow Visualization at the University of Colorado at Boulder.  I noticed some Virga in the skies recently, but don’t think I caught any; these other images stood out to me though and I’d like to share em.

Your knowledge and help to correctly identify these clouds is greatly appreciated. Let me know your thoughts…

Long Slackline in Norlin Quad

Exiting my exam this morning I encountered some folks pulling a frisbee out of a backpack, I asked to toss for a bit and enjoyed. One of them started pulling webbing out of his backpack, and a bit more, and a bit more yet.

We set up a long, about 200 feet long, slack line across the quad. We enjoyed listening to its whomping noises in the wind, but not feeling the vibrating system while walking…
