tree shadows

something about green and trees and growing and summery breezes makes me feel like sailing about in a white linen dress. i was on a little hike the other day, and the trees were so lush and full that the light was streaming down in various tints of green. the wind kept shifting the light patterns on the ground so that the green tints were very nearly twinkling -
i took about a million photos, suddenly obsessed with capturing the patterns, and wondered if i might find a way to pick up the shadows and put them into my pocket for safe keeping.

No words.

Lovely images.
Thank you again.

a friend once told me a story about an artist he knew--whenever this artist looked up at trees she no longer saw the tree in whole but rather the spaces between the branches. i like that your images consider both, as both are equally important. beautiful.
