The second lowest dry land point (-40 m) in the Western Hemisphere is just outside the photo, the middle of a peninsula surrounded by the Atlantic!

Salish Sea, Denman Island, British Columbia, 2016.

Earth Day 2024

There was a time when this view would have included fishing boats, for prior to about 2000 the Sea was a major fishing ground. The depletion of various species, including salmon, now makes those boats a rare sight. Cruise ships, freighters and pleasure craft enliven the scene on some days, but in this photo taken on Earth Day in 2016 there is not a single boat.

Kronos Quartet taking a bow, Coolidge Auditorium, Library of Congress, Capitol Hill, Washington, DC, 18 April 2024.

The past four weeks have provided amazing musical experiences thanks to the Library of Congress and the Folger Consort. We have heard live performances of music ranging from the 13th century Spanish king and composer Alfonso X el Sabio through the French Baroque and Brahms to pop with Metallica and Elton John.

On Thursday we had tickets for the 50th Anniversary Concert by the Kronos Quartet, electrifying figuratively and literally. I have long been a fan of Kronos, founded 50 years ago at North Seattle Community College and from their beginning presenters of avant garde composers even as they try to bring serious music to the masses. On Thursday we sat in the seats just behind one of those composers Charlton Singleton whose composition "Testimony" brought the audience to its feet. The first time in my life that I could offer thanks directly to the composer and have a brief intermission conversation with him. By the way, Singleton is also a top flight jazz performer, and his newish group Ranky Tanky is getting lots of positive commentary.

For someone who is a bit of a music junkie, the weeks have been heavenly!

Caballos salvajes, Parque Nacional Tierra del Fuego, 2022.

Feral horses are a problem in the National Park at the end of the earth. Domesticated horses have been released without permission of the park authorities, and they have become an invasive pest.
