After a tree falls in the forest

Some days need a walk in the woods more than others.

Yesterday was just such a day, so after signing off from work I put on my hiking shoes and coat and climbed down into the leaf-covered river valley.

I wasn’t there long, as the light was fading. The colors melted into an increasingly murky mess as the sun disappeared and the deep shadows embraced the forest floor.

Light challenges notwithstanding, I had just enough time to slowly walk among the trees and put the day’s insanity behind me.

Often, that’s all it takes, a few minutes alone in the deep woods to wonder about what was, what is, and what will be. A few minutes to think about anything but, to enjoy the fading brilliance of a place that will soon be a monochromatic canvas.

The random pictures that get picked up along the way are a tiny bonus.
