The gentlemen at the muffler shop next door lost a bevy of their balloons but they were caught, quite gently, by the oak tree towering above the house. I was reminded of The Red Balloon, a movie that I have not seen since I was a child but I feel a need to look it up.
Also caught was a plastic bag that in this morning’s light with its twists and turns about the branches reminded me of a nautilus shell.

through two panes of old glass
rippled and bubbled
branches on display, barely lit by the setting sun
while reflected in the glass light from the lamp indoors
my camera in that moment out of focus
but my sight as I sat in a chair across the room
admiring such complex layers of light and life
quite clear quite clear

trees standing tall in the Fells
trees in shadow upon the ground
and the music that inspired as I decided which sylvan images to post

When I first went up the stairs there were no shadows cast on the wall, no dark silhouettes in the air. Then the sun peeked out for just a short while lighting up my little corner of the world.

… what can be done today? That was one of the thoughts that inspired the photo essay, Branching Thoughts, now appearing on Creativity Portal. To what do I refer? Well, when you have a chance, please read the essay and then you’ll know what I mean. 😉
FYI, there are many other wonderful essays, articles and more to be found on the site. One of my favorite end of year items is a beautiful 2014 calendar designed by Creativity Portal founder Chris Dunmire and available for download month by month or all 12-months at once for “less than a cup of coffee.” Can’t beat that these days. Hope you have fun exploring all the different words and images on the site.
