The Glow v1

The Glow

On Saturday I was greeted with a warm afternoon sunset on a particularly quiet afternoon and, naturally, I couldn’t pass up a couple of photo opportunities in the blueish twilight that followed. The colors feel exaggerated here yet my memory remembered the room having a beautiful deep blue tone late in the day. I was boiling some water for a pot of pour over coffee and as I took  the kettle from the stovetop I loved the way the orange glow so perfectly balanced the temperature of the light late in the day and because it was a nice, subtle glow the exposure was almost perfectly balanced leaving me with these beautifully simple photos. Perhaps a little unusual subject matter wise I thought it would be fun to offer them up as wallpapers. Enjoy!

    When I saw this was called “The Glow” i was pretty sure you had used this photo. Saw it on YWO and loved it so much. Glad you went with a wallpaper on it. Great stuff. Thanks for the great work John!

    Very nice. But you should drink tea instead of coffee^^

    Happy you guys enjoy it.

    I do love a good tea as well! I am just not as well versed in the art of a good cup. Maybe its time I learn?

    It is really easy, try and decide for your own, the art is to remember which setting (temperature, quantity, time, cup, hardness of water) for which tea was the best.

It’s not fair to artists if you do not credit their work and link back to the original content creator. It is theft plain and simple and blogs that attempt to somehow be mysterious by not giving credit to the creators are simply hurting the artistic community as a whole. If you love it so much then please, support it! The artistic community on the Internet is based on trust. Without trust then what do we have? are you going to be one of the responsible users out there or will you be among the bottom feeders, stealing content and passing it off as your own to make a quick buck in ad sales.

Use your best judgement and we will get along just fine.

Thank you for your understanding and support!
