Our Second Photo Field Trip

I really love fall. So it was with great excitement that I got an email of a Fall photo field trip. This is a part 1 of sorts. I loved the reflective water to help create some interesting pictures...
I seemed to start "the latest fold" in my exploring the world sculpted around me, by taking pictures of the sky. So, when I saw this "unique reflection of the sky" I had to take it.

I liked the abstractness of these views...


...and then there are pictures of paths. My Dad, & a very good spiritual friend, got me into enjoying taking walks [or hikes] in the woods. So much so that I enjoy going alone, notebook with me, & just slowing down. I remove my watch, [& anything else that will tell me the time] & just go into the woods... lose myself ...inside God's canvas. It has become for me, a monastery of sorts. I can feel the woods fold in on me, swallowing me whole.
Healing can begin in these times for me...
An "untying of the knots" as it were...
