Shadows beside an abandoned field of dreams

Autumn light and texture

At the edge of a baseball diamond in a park not far from home, the chain link fence behind home plate casts long shadows on the time-worn wood that frames it.

It’s the light that brings me here - the golden hour light on the tired wood, broken up only by the shadows of twisted steel wire.

The games are all finished for the year, the only soundtrack the gentle swish of the wind through the fence.

Soon, the colours will fade. Then, winter, the shadowy backstop standing sentinel over the emptiness where children once played.
