Which leaves us with a choice: either sigh wearily and get on with our day, or crouch down and take a closer look at what’s left before time and winds whip them into oblivion.
So that’s what I do on this gently sunny Saturday morning as Calli the Wonderschnauzer patiently sniffs the grass nearby. The two of us have evolved a bit of a routine around dog walks and spontaneous photography, and I often forget to thank her for giving me a reason to get out with a lens in the first place.
As I compose this moment down at my feet, I ponder how temporary it is, and how a simple bloom from a nearby tree deserves to be the centre of attention before it disappears forever. Come to think of it, we all do.
