One leaf. One zoo.

Like my veins?

A while ago, I went to the zoo. So of course I had to come home with an abstract-ish photo of a leaf.

It didn’t make sense then, and it certainly doesn’t make sense now. Sometimes I see things and I decide in the moment that they need to be remembered in some way. Even if they seem out of place given where I happen to be.

Not to worry, as I did snag a fair number of animal photos that day, as well. But this is the one that seems to stand out in my mind, because every time we go on an adventure, one photo seems to emerge as a signature of the day.

None of this is easily explained, nor does it need to be. Perhaps it’s enough that each of us has a unique way of remembering our respective journey through this thing we call life.

And some of us are just a little weirder than normal. Whatever normal is.

In the meantime, enjoy the shot of colour. The planet could use it.
