the white fish

I passed by a pond of what I thought were all orange koi fish. Then, out of the blue, I spied a white fish with gold accents. A ghostly figure that I really wanted to capture amidst the reflections in the water. Mostly unsuccessful … he kept dipping deeper into the water. But what I caught, and what I remember, are magical to me.

One day, I will move from this house in Somerville with its many windows. I will no longer be able to climb its spiral staircase to the top floor and from there to peer out the old window at the towering oak. I will no longer be able to train my camera up through that tree’s branches into the sky. But that day has not yet come. So on this bright September morn, I am grateful for this window, this oak and the blue of the sky beyond. Have a good day, folks.

That’s why I sat down in the chair, to lace up my shoes, so that I could dart outside to pull a view blossoms from the neighbor’s vine.
But as always I looked up and out through the rippled glass, and so had to pause in my morning glory venture to snap a few photos of bright near-autumn sun raining down.
