September Sunday
“Outside the leaves on the trees constricted slightly; they were the deep done green of the beginning of autumn. It was a Sunday in September. There would only be four. The clouds were high and the swallows would be here for another month or so before they left for the south before they returned again next summer.”
-Ali Smith
“I love September, especially when we’re in it.”

With a rich fullness the remains of Summer are moving into Fall.
Cool nights, a sense of completion, enriched saturated days are harbingers of the upcoming changes.
There is a calm reverence for all that has grown, come to fruition, deepened, and been absorbed in all of these radiant long Summer days.
Change is in the air, but not quite yet. We are balanced in this ripeness for a few more days.
There is such sweetness in this overflowing, saturated abundance.
A Fleeting Moment
“It’s a moment that I’m after, a fleeting moment, but not a frozen moment.”
-Andrew Wyeth
This life is so precious and the wonders are astounding. That is what compels me about photography. You must be fully present to acknowledge these wonders, then make a choice as to what to frame, what moment to capture. We’re doing that continually of course – making choices of what to focus on, what to acknowledge, what to see and remember.
I’m choosing to remember and focus on love, truth, energy, small and large nature wonders, life’s grace…
“When you really pay attention, everything is your teacher.”
