Harriet Island Eagle small commando photozaic
Harriet Island Eagle small commando photozaic

This statement by -Jamie Sams, Seneca/Choctaw, and David Carson, Choctaw really hits home on how I view a Bald Eagle’s presence in this world.            

Eagle Medicine is the power of the Great Spirit, the connection to the Divine. It is the ability to live in the realm of spirit, and yet remain connected and balanced within the realm of Earth. Eagle soars and is quick to observe expansiveness within the overall pattern of life. From the heights of the clouds, Eagle is close to the heavens where the Great Spirit dwells.    

I hope the next time you witness a Bald Eagle in the wilderness you think of how Choctaw people view this majestic creature!

The sunset silhouettes of the islands have been like no other I’ve seen on my travels, knowing you are in borderland country (Minnesota/Canada) when you see the trees bouncing off the evening sky.  In my eyes each sunset is unique and unlike the previous day.  Colors from sunsets change just like the seasons.  Late summer sunsets have the deepest orange fading into twilight blue.

Like water which can clearly mirror the sky and the trees only so long as its surface is undisturbed, the mind can only reflect the true image of the self when it is tranquil and wholly relaxed. – Indra Devi.  This image was taken at Wachusett’s Reservoir and I love the Natick Native American term which means “near the Mountain”.

UPDATE Forest of Birch photozaics

SMALL FORMAL PHOTOZAIC AND COMMANDO SOLD OVER THE WEEKEND. But don’t worry I reordered the commando print and will be making another one and holding off on the formal photoziacs until I receive a direct request.  Over the weekend it was unanimous, the crowd loved the commando line, and I can’t get these done quickly enough. Love problems like this one… stay tuned for new works.
