As I walked in the woods in Maine, I thought often of photographer Eliot Porter (1901-1990) especially when I tried to train my camera on the fall of light on bared branches …

and on shadows shifting across gray stone made colorful with wildflowers and lichen.

And then of course as you’re focusing on light and branches you realize that there are other things being illuminated as well.

Still sorting pictures. A wonderful work in progress. Stay tuned. π
