Does everyone remember the simple joys of childhood like playing in the mud and water? I watched this child playing in the mud on the banks of the Mekong River downstream from Luang Prabang, Laos, for many minutes while he remained oblivious of everything but his 'engineering' job. His dynamic pose suggested to me that, while enjoying the mud, he was being careful not to get his clothes dirty.

“This is the true fruit and true purpose of Christian solitude: that what we learn leads us out to others with a stronger love that is pure. We can go out to them without vanity and without complacency, loving others with something of the purity and gentleness and hiddenness of God’s love for us. We do not cease to be men in order to become angels or gods, but the love of my man’s heart becomes God’s love for God and men, and my human tears can fall from my eyes as the tears of God because they well up from the motion of His Spirit in the heart of His incarnate Son. The one true God sent His only begotten Son to men in the likeness of man that they, while still remaining men, might love Him with a divine love.”
- Thomas Merton from Thoughts in Solitude pgs. 129-130
As fall arrives, the water levels go lower in the river and more sand banks appear. The hills are brown from the hot summer sun.
This week has been one filled with clichés. First the beach, then the grass...so today I'm doing cherries. I was obsessed with cherries last year. I had big people and little people holding bowls of cherries, I used long lenses, I used prime lenses. I had people stand in different light with the bowl, in the garden, in front of a white sheet. All sorts.
Last night, I snapped these before we ate them. It was so much simpler!

Shadows and silhouettes. Looking through the window of a derelict warehouse in West Yorkshire on a sunny day.
The light showing through the space where the roof once was has created an abstract feel to the dilapidated structure behind the window.

Out in the country, she walks with her horses through fields that don’t hurry. No clock, no crowd — just the smell of hay, the sound of hooves, and a life made of simple, honest days
I found a couple rolls of film that I never developed from over 8 years ago. I was so happy to discover many beautiful moments. The age of the film before developing has given the pictures an even more nostalgic look.
This tree was in Biei or Furano. The first time I ever went to that area of Hokkaido, I was enchanted by it's simple and natural beauty. I still am even now, 8 years later.
