Walk the most dangerous path in Balia... Meandering around a volcanic ridge, through jungle lowlands, and over salt flats, Dusk Lane is a route only the most desperate travelers find, and without strong guides nobody can survive the path through the beautiful and dangerous interior of Chimelu. Rika is one such guide, but this group of travelers might prove to be more than he can handle, for each has suffered great loss. Young Aaden has lost his music; beautiful Suri has lost her voice; bold Annora has lost her future, and all three hope something on the path can restore them. Rika finds he has lost his detachment, and as he sinks more deeply into the lives of his travelers, he realizes this trek down the Lane may change his entire life. Of course, they're traveling in the rainy season when the path is most dangerous, so there's a good chance they won't survive to change at all. Enter Balia, a world not so different from our own. Explore lush landscapes and rich cultures as Balia's creator, TrueGod, moves through many times and places to find lost and broken people to call his own. Fantasy with a Christian worldview.
Eons ago, the galaxies of the universe were conjoined. These super galaxies were the result of atoms merging as the universe was born in a tight cluster. As time passed, the galaxies started to tear and drift apart, creating the Voids. In the year 3001, the universe continues to expand, but now, rifts--the by-product of the galaxies' separation--threaten to tear the universe to bits.On Earth, Sean Mathewson Caleb was once a sergeant in the famous Non-Existent Wars. He plans to finally retire and live out his life in peace. Then, an unexpected visit from an alien life form changes the course of his destiny, and a letter from his late father gives him the tools he needs to fight the oncoming darkness--but will it be enough?Meanwhile, in another galaxy, mysterious attacks are making people question what's really out there. Something dark looms in the Voids. They are Dark Matter Entities, ironically nicknamed Sprites. These non-corporeal beings rain death and destruction on anything that is an affront to their existence. With the threat of these beings and with the universe falling apart, it seems a cataclysm is on its way unless a few brave souls can stop it.
Join a diverse group of suburban kids as they dash and dodge in classic street games like tag and kick-the-can and reconnect with nature's simple pleasures catching frogs, hunting fireflies, and climbing trees. These explorers play, laugh, and make the most of their own front yards right up until their parents call out that 'It's time to come home!' But when the sun begins to set tomorrow, they'll be back for more evening excitement! This ode to the timeless magic of summer evenings spent outside will remind kids of the fun and friends that wait just outside their doors and leave adults smiling with nostalgia for their own dusk explorations.
As hinted in the title, Dusk & Dawn refers to the night, which is the most thought-provoking and emotion-evoking period of the day. Dusk highlights the approaching darkness of despair and chaos of both the heart and the mind; while Dawn gives way to a new day, promising hope. This book is a collection of emotions, thoughts and feelings knitted together to give words to the turmoil of the heart and its constant battle of self-assurance in hope of finding happiness and peace. The book is a journey of self-discovery, from struggling through heartbreak, self-hate and inferiority complexes to finally accepting one's flaws, understanding one's self-worth and striving to be a better version of self.
For fans of North Woods and The Vaster Wilds, Dusk is a propulsive, moody, and atmospheric take on the Western. In the distant highlands, a puma named Dusk is killing shepherds. Down in the lowlands, twins Iris and Floyd are out of work, money and friends. When they hear that a bounty has been placed on Dusk, they reluctantly decide to join the hunt. As they journey up into this wild, haunted country, they discover there's far more to the land and people of the highlands than they imagined. And as they close in on their prey, they're forced to reckon with conflicts both ancient and deeply personal. From the critically acclaimed and award-winning author of The Rain Heron, Dusk is a masterful, mythical tale of loss, redemption, and survival.
In the past, landscape photography largely ended when the last light of dusk faded from the sky. Today it's only beginning. The latest digital cameras have made it easy to create images of the landscape at night that film and early digital photographers could only dream of. Equipped with off-the-shelf cameras, more and more photographers are venturing into the night, far beyond the comforting glow of city lights, and returning with spectacular images of places both familiar and unknown that are unlike anything seen before.Dusk to Dawn: A Guide to Landscape Photography at Night is your guide to this new photographic world. In it, photographer Glenn Randall - author of the bestselling The Art, Science, and Craft of Great Landscape Photography - teaches you how to plan, shoot, and process professional-quality images of the Milky Way, the aurora, lunar eclipses, meteor showers, star trails, and landscapes lit solely by moonlight. Throughout the book, Randall emphasizes ways to integrate beautiful depictions of the night sky with equally compelling renditions of the land below to create complete landscape images that evoke a sense of place-and a sense of wonder. Equipped with the knowledge in this book, readers will be prepared to create their own nocturnal masterpieces.
