Henry’s Fork, a river flowing through the Harriman Wildlife Refuge in Idaho. A study in simplicity.

Or Henry’s Fork with a solitary tree near the river banks. Simplicity with a focal point.
About Bo MackisonI'm a photographer, book-artist, traveler, naturalist, and creator of the Contemplative Creatives Journey, An Online Workshop and Community and Desert Wisdom Cards and Workshops. Though often not well known, I find the desert a welcoming place - a healing space. Its mysteries and gifts transformed me several years ago. Since that first encounter, I return again and again to fill my well in what most people think of as a desolate region. I'd love to share my desert discoveries and wisdom with you. Please subscribe to receive my five part mini email course The Gifts of the Desert. It's my gift to you.
Simple is best. The muted, soft colors are breathtaking. What a magnificent area. What magnificent photos.
Thanks, Robin. I’ve never been to this part of Idaho. It was really lovely.
I was so into a Far Side moment that I expected a dorky boy holding a bent fork. Ah well… Still it is a very peaceful image. 🙂
A boy and a bent fork? No, Gandalf — I was photographing this lovely little stream in Idaho…
I’m partial to the one with the tree….cause I like trees! The simplicity of both shots appeal to me on a deep level. Looks like you are having a fabulous journey, dear. Be safe!
I kinda like the tree one, too. Gives the eye a place to rest for a moment.
I really like the warm tones and overall landscapes views. How lovely these are!
They are both lovely. I’d be hard pressed to pick one over the other. I like them both.
