201 – Star Trails Mandala
International photographer, Eric Nathan, created this amazing and beautiful nightscape image using hundreds of long-exposure images of the night sky over Cape Town South Africa.
It fascinates me how it creates a vortex-like image in space. Because we move so slowly, we hardly notice the stars “moving” let alone “moving” in a circular pattern.
196 – Pluto’s Heart Mandala
Yesterday an amazing thing happened…and it was 10 years and three-billion-miles in the making! NASA’s New Horizons did it’s closest flyby past the last known planet in our solar system: Pluto. And look what appeared around the back side: an area that looks like a heart. And for me, I can also see it as a white dove flapping its wings.
194 – Succulents Mandala
My artist friend, Kris Mitchell, creates amazing almost-mystical landscape paintings in watercolors, color pencils, and mixed media. She also loves to photograph flowers and post them on facebook.
190 – Seven Pointed Star Mandala
My local friend, Ella, recently visited High Country Gems & Minerals rock shop in Glenwood Springs, CO, where the owner, Patti Rock Star, shared with Ella this beautifully stunning seven pointed star pattern imbedded inside a geode. What an AMAZING creation by Mother Nature. And SEVEN points? Wow!
189 – Diosa Primavera Mandala
Atlanta, GA photographer and digital artist, Jane Queen, created this stunning and captivating piece of modern-retro photographic art. It stopped me in my tracks when I first spotted it. The more I look at it, the more I see in it and the more I feel pulled into it.
187 – Orchids and Mums Danmala
Kathy Klein creates beautiful danmalas (the giving of flower circles) using a variety of flower blossoms. In this case, she used orchid petals and mum flowers.
The striking contrast between the deep maroons/purples of the orchids and the white mums makes this danmala really pop against the wood background. The dash of yellow warms it up.
