Cumulonimbus
Cumulonimbus: a heap of luminous clouds, at least that is how the latin is translated. While the reference to a heap (cumulus) sounds a little undignified for these massive structures, the luminosity or halo of saints or supernatural beings (nimbus) reflects their magic. And when mortals are left in dark valleys at the end of the day, these clouds seem to generate their own light. Click on the image for a larger view.
Alpine Gardens, Mt. Washington
Just below the summit of Mt. Washington in the White Mountain National Forest in New Hampshire is a place called the Alpine Garden. A trail between the heads of Tuckerman Ravine and Huntington Ravine takes you through this rich alpine meadow. This image is taken from the top of Huntington Ravine looking south into Pinkham Notch.

Swift River
The Swift River in the White Mountains National Park in New Hampshire follows the path of the Kancamagus Highway. The moonlight illuminates the coursing water and polished stone. The interplay between these two elements reveals their shared destiny. Both creating and destroying their mutual forms.
