One Rialto Moment

2016-09-17 By Roger Edwards

One Rialto Moment

Thirty minutes before, no indication existed that daylight’s denouement would be anything other than a really nice beach scene with some twilight wrapping around distant stack islands.  That alone is more than a sufficient and appreciated blessing to experience.  One fortuitously timed patch of cirrus clouds, wafting southward over the sea, centered right between the rocks at peak color, made this sunset a moment for awe and wonder, a keepsake of the soul for this life and beyond.

About

Welcome to SkyPix, an online photo book of clouds, weather and water by Roger Edwards. As in a printed coffee-table book, every image has its own page with a unique story. After all, meaningful photography is much more than just picture-taking; it is visually rendering a moment in place and time from a perspective like none other. As a scientist and an artist, I hope my deep passion for the power and splendor of our skies and waters shines through in these pages. If you are a cloud and weather aficionado, outdoor enthusiast, outdoor or nature photographer, art lover, or anyone who craves learning, enjoy...
