Clouds Over Catskills

Thanksgiving 2007

Playing around with black and white settings in my little digital elf. I liked the results and textures of this photo, taken from a jet flying over the Catskill Mountains in upstate New York.

    looks beautiful, almost like a desert going into the distance.

  3. Waves as Molly flies over his old stomping grounds.

    Its very scarey to think one was sitting in a metal cylinder travelling at hundreds of miles an hour above the mountains at the time you took the photo molly… highly unnatural :)

    nice photo by the way.

    It reminds me of Maya Lin’s “The Wave Field” at the University of Michigan. I haven’t been there, but I’ve seen pictures of the garden.

    I think the garden was based on something called “Stokes Waves” (I’m probably mistaken; corrections are enthusiastically sought!), which are some sort of aerodynamic phenomenon. I think that makes the picture even more pertinent! :-)

    Maya Lin is the architect behind the Vietnam Memorial in Washington DC.

    Nice pic, Molly! Any chance you might post it in some larger format? So I can use it as a wallpaper? :-)

    Thanks all :)

    Sure Carolyn Ann, just click through the pic to Flickr, then select “All sizes” and find the size that suits your desktop. Enjoy!

  8. I have set it as my desktop wallpaper as well and it already drew attention by my coworkers :)

    Looks like blowing snow out in some field in the tundra of the great white north (I don’t mean Toronto-I mean northern Canada).
