Taken at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum. The "portal" is a sculpture inscribed on the inside of the circle with information about maple trees. However, I prefer to think of it as a gateway into the imagination.

The calm after the storm. Taken at the end of a hot, stormy summer day, when the humidity makes it feel like you're breathing water vapor.

Image: The Way Out

Taken while hiking along the Minnesota River, trying desperately to outrun the mosquitoes. I did not succeed. The break in the trees opens onto the river, which provided only temporary relief from the nasty critters. They simply waited with patience and glee for my inevitable return to the deeply wooded trail.

Thank you, my friends, for your astute and very kind suggestions on Stones. I went back to the bin to see what else I had in there and found this one.

While out trying to photograph some stormy weather, I stopped to take a few shots of these office towers. The storm hit shortly after this shot was taken. On this occasion, I made it back to my car and avoided getting wet.

Not a lot of drama in this sunset, just some calming blue sky with a touch of pink.
