Crepuscular Rays

Sun below horizon
Light dark contrast
Rayleigh scattering

On the earth’s curved edge, air particles scatter short wavelength light allowing longer wavelengths to differentially pass through cloud formations. Although it takes effort and planning, being active during twilight hours offers substantial reward.

“From the first opening of our eyes, it is the light that attracts us. We clutch aimlessly with our baby fingers at the gossamer-motes in the sunbeam, and we die reaching out after an ineffable blending of earthly and heavenly beauty which we shall never fully comprehend.” – Lucy Larcom

Dawn Horizon

Ideal fusion
Event moment
Morning breeze

The best time of a day is full of promise.

“Sunrise looks spectacular in the nature; sunrise looks spectacular in the photos; sunrise looks spectacular in our dreams; sunrise looks spectacular in the paintings, because it really is spectacular!” – Mehmet Murat ildan

Every morning the beach geomorphology is reconfigured.

“The creative act is a letting down of the net of human imagination into the ocean of chaos on which we are suspended, and the attempt to bring out of it ideas.” – Terence McKenna

Shipwreck Sunrise

Starting to glow
Stay in the game
Past prime

A short rest stop on the path of existence.

“Yeah, runnin’ down a dream, That never would come to me, Workin’ on a mystery, goin’ wherever it leads, Runnin’ down a dream.” – Tom Petty

Energy Waves

Over the ocean
Horizontal transient
Solar flares

Using the daystar as a point-light source in motion, another interactive sunrise on the beach transpires toward a higher plane. Far away things in the universe often seem very close.

“I’m just glad there’s still lots of stuff that interests me enough to get me up in the morning to go have a look at it.” – Neil Peart

Shore Outpost

Narrow channels
Appropriate attenuation
Boundary determination

Near a fluctuating water confluence, separated by space and time some distance from the mainstream, shifting light delineates a remote position. Occasionally things can be learned instantaneously.

“Now is no time to think of what you do not have. Think of what you can do with what there is.” – Ernest Hemingway

Natural Functions

Rainy day
Come round
Soothing component

A gentle rain washes off the dust of routine appearances, giving rise to a cleansing effect associated with sentiments of renewal and liberation.

“Then there was rain, this town’s foundations are crumbling, to the ground comes a bit of a tumbling, and time just floated away.” – Christopher Anthony

Sympathetic Acquaintance

Inexhaustible richness
Complex interrelation
Lived experience

Aesthetics is a mental frame of context that facilitates contact with life in its living vitality. Every interpretation fits an existing universe inside imagination.

“Artworks detach themselves from the empirical world and bring forth another world, one opposed to the empirical world as if this other world too were an autonomous entity.” – Theodor W. Adorno

No Matter

Surface energy
Color resources
Quaint distinctions

Tracing radiation across a retail strip-mall at dusk covers the world in virtual brush strokes. Expanding the performative aspect in splendored action, a mediated painting does not necessarily require paint.

“I paint my own reality. The only thing I know is that I paint because I need to, and I paint whatever passes through my head without any other consideration.” – Frida Kahlo

Waves

Compounding series
Empathetic interconnectivity
Ripple effect

Ocean waves catch the morning sunlight in a creative push, feeding imagination and freedom as everything moves around.

“Life is a wave, which in no two consecutive moments of its existence is composed of the same particles.” – John Tyndall
