I’ve got to get better at labeling my photos but this was indeed the 16th photo that I saved after a quick photo walk through the office park in Woburn, MA. It is a tight image of a small pool of water in a field. The sun was shining bright but then a cloud passed over.

I’ve lived in the Boston area for quite a while now, but there are always captivating images to be found in familiar places, like the Boston Public Garden.

As I took these photos, with my camera focused at the surface of a shallow pool, a little girl watched me. I heard her mother’s encouraging words, “Go ask her what she’s doing. Go ahead.” She took a few steps toward me before deciding that the bird flying by was far more fascinating. Her mom studied the water’s surface for a few moments though, and then with an acknowledging smile, she trailed off after her little one.

This morning around the oak tree (that towers above the house) there was a symphony of color at play.
Spring light illuminated new growth, including golden pollen.
The wind brought sweeping movement.
It was a song celebrating life …
from the grand moments
to the tiny details.
A passionate composition of fierce expression in glorious color and texture.
At least that would be my music review. 😉

I knew it was going to be a long day of traveling from site to site, and so I told a friend that I would send him dispatches from the road.
Instead, I find myself choosing to share some dispatches from the kitchen as part of a quick coffee break. 
Okay, a last sip, and then back out into the day. Have a good one, folks. 😉

In the field next door behind the chain link fence grow dandelions. Above the yellow heads skim white butterflies. A few starlings walk about. No other animals do I see. Green grass uncut. A few scattered purple pansies. And, always, always, the ash gray and brown bark of the nearby dying trees.
