Wait for the colour to show itself London, ON November 2024 This photo originally shared on Instagram |
Autumn’s colours have long since faded to grey, and on this day they’re further muted by the soupy air, so I don’t necessarily know if there’s anything worth seeing out there. But still, I have hope.
I soon find myself standing quietly in the middle of a clearing as the trees and scrub grasses quietly materialize out of the fog. The longer I wait, the more I see, almost as if the forest is taking its sweet time sharing its secrets with me.
I walk around the space, looking for new vantage points to better tell the story of a magical moment in a magical place. I’ve been here so many times before, but it’s never been cloaked in quite this manner.
I’m hesitant to leave, because the conditions can change in an instant, and it’ll never again look or feel like it does right now.
So I linger longer than I probably should, feeling the subtle nudges from a place that, today at least, speaks not so much in sound and light, but in intangible whispers that touch the soul.
