Beautiful Arches

Took an afternoon to see Gravity today
at the IMAX and couldn’t resist the scenery.
Movie was  technically+visually spectacular
but I enjoyed  photographing the arches
just as well.

Beautiful Sculpture

Wandering leads to all things beautiful.
Sonic Bloom is an LED sculpture at the entry
to the Seattle Pacific Science Center with a chorus of
color and sound. Interactive, movement
triggers the flowers to light up.  See it here.

Beautiful Thoughts

The Important Thing

“The important thing is not to stop questioning.”
– Albert Einstein

Today has been a very challenging day but
I know there is light at the top of the stairs
and when the journey is achieved there’s
and beautiful view looking back.
