feathered alibi

Dandelion sparkles!

My attempt at a lyric edit, of sorts, for Lord Huron's Long Lost. I simply cannot get enough of that song (or that album), or this ethereal place I got to visit. Can you believe we share this planet with millions of species dead and alive, with even more extraordinary landscapes tucked in quiet corners, and with each other? Can you believe we get to be a part of its 4.5 billion-year-old legacy?

Ineffable.

Daylight bleeding through the deodar cedars.

to the ends of the earth would you follow me?

leave me where the light pours down through the leaves like rain 🍂

Dusk dusting fluffy clouds with a fiery orange.

In the middle of nowhere with a crisply azure bright sky. If we’re not supposed to dance, why all this music indeed?

Long Lost.

Original video taken at 16,040 feet at the merging point of the Pir Panjal, Zanskar and the Great Himalayan mountain ranges at Baralacha La. Cutting through these snow-capped peaks is this small stream dependent on melting glaciers for its water source. The azure blue sky with a bright, scalding midday sun adorning every shift of the meltwater stream was quite a sight to behold!
