Driving the tractor from the dump lot back to the dooryard, the light was beautiful and the height of the grass made an ethereal soft foreground to the house and barns in the distance

Each year my husband and I eagerly await the return of these happy little campers. The very morning this photo was taken I remarked to my husband slightly worried “I haven’t seen any chipmunks yet this year” and then as if he heard my comment this little guy popped out of the rocks to say “hello” as I was leaving for work.

Exposed time and sun-bleached wood showing extensive turbulence and healing of the underlying cambium. Wisdom.
This black birch fascinated me as it pulled me in to study it closely. South end of Selden Creek Preserve on a brisk spring walk.

Fascinated by the interaction of moss and other life. It is symbiosis in action, like a gentle incubator. The sun was perfectly illuminating this proud and confident little loner. The focus took some effort but the result was worth the wet knees…

The thrill of new green in spring. So beautiful, perfect, delicate. I love the perfect unblemished form marking new beginnings.
