this photoblog is an exploration of boundaries, borders, transitions, transgressions, and other rudiments through a lens of pixels, pixilated nostalgia, moments in time, images-both in and out of context, other optics and a few apparitions.

along the Potomac
This weekend, we went kayaking again along the western edge of the city limits. Paddling along the banks we saw much of the debris washed downstream by the recent rainstorms. Overall, we were delighted by the sights.
A thick water snake wrestles the last bit of warmth from a large boulder while a dragonfly perches atop its scales.
We kept paddling. Then we heard the familiar thunder of a larger dragonfly...snaking its way along the river.

The snake and the dragonfly - my favorite!!! How did you capture that moment?? besos ab
Got lucky...we gently maneuvered the kayak so we were about seven feet or so from the snake. The snake seemed more interested in resting atop the boulder than in us.
You guys probably have quite a few in your neighborhood. Arizona is snake country :)
We sure do! We ran into a rattle snake on a hike last winter in the middle of the trail...it freaked us out!!!
