In the Clouds

Mount Fremont Trail, Mount Rainier National Park

Sunny blue skies. And then THEY start coming. Traversing the trail. Heading straight to the TOP. I am swept IN IT. Holding on my own. Getting to the TOP. ALL is white, indefinite, moving. And I stand there. Watching !!!

Mt. Fremont Trail: And then They start coming

Mt. Fremont Trail: Traversing the trail

Mt. Fremont Trail: I am swept In It. Holding on my own.


Mt. Fremont Trail: On the Top. All is white, indefinite. Watching !!!

Mt. Fremont Trail: On the way back

Mt. Fremont Trail: Waves goodbye

The Hurricane has passed by

Laupahoehoe Point Park, Hawai’i aka Big Island

The waves are its messengers. Reaching the coast. Lifting itself up. Crushing in an uproar. To whiteness. And then comes the next. I watch and listen. Wave drops are in the air. Touching me.

Hawai’i: Lifting itself up

Hawai’i: Dancing with the rocks

Hawai’i: Crushing in an uproar

Hawai’i: Wave drops are in the air

Hawai’i: To whiteness

Hawai’i: It is time to withdraw

Hawai’i: Standing firm. Deeply rooted.

Where IT all began

Loowit aka Mount St. Helens

33 years AFTER. Reshaping OUTSIDE from the INSIDE. In a catastrophic eruption. All over again.

Loowit: Unyielding and detached. The clouds are there for a reason.

Loowit: Looking. In Wonder.

Loowit: A big chunk of her body is missing. Now ALL around.

Loowit: Brushing off, filling in, reshaping IT

Loowit: Spirit Lake reborn. Floating remnants of the forest.

Loowit: Dotted with trees. Growing again. New forest is being born.

Loowit: Coldwater Lake is here for the first time

Loowit: The Newcomer is Welcomed by Life

Loowit: Trees give way. Only to return back.
