    Morning Mist

    May 26, 2025

    gentle morning mist
    nature offering her gifts
    droplets for new life

    mws

    Overcast skies, a constant mist and the coolness of humidity have been with us now for three days. I’ll take it and enjoy it just as the petunias are.

    Live in Open Space

    February 22, 2025

    a grove of barren trees 
    in a snow covered pasture
    thrive in open space

    mws

    After peaking Bingham Hill you drop into this lovely lowland meadow that always gives me some good vibes. Maybe it’s because it’s an open space. There is no invasion of a housing development, warehouse or mall to take the view away. So, yesterday morning I needed to stop and capture the open wintery scene. Enjoy your weekend!!
