| Still worth a look London, ON October 2025 This photo originally shared on Instagram |
A relatively dry summer has sapped the colours from the leaves, and even those with a bit of shade just aren’t as vibrant as they usually are.
Yet I’m still taking walks in the woods. Still looking for whatever it is that will inspire me to lift the camera up and freeze the memory.
Because if all we’re doing is looking for the brilliant reds and oranges, there’s a whole lot of leftover spectrum that we’re missing. If our focus is only on that which we expect to see, then we’ll never be ready for the unexpected.
Or so I convince myself as I frame up another shrivelled example from a season everyone else would rather forget.
Maybe I’m weird, then, but in my world no season is forgettable. So I peer into the margins of the forest and find the things that would otherwise be ignored. Maybe the leaves are trying to teach us a lesson.
