Innocent alone,

In the first warm light.

Gently underway.

Winter’s shadows fading.

New to the world.

Will you … ?

Can you … ?

Whispering to the woods,

Listening,

Wondering,

Watching.

Gently underway ...

~ RAGE AGAINST THE DYING OF THE LIGHT ~

"Retina detachment" are not words that any photographer wishes to hear …

Two emergency operations in December on what I would have considered to be my “better” eye,

puts a certain perspective on how one considers one’s place in the world …

Even in such times, where our lives are anything other than normal,

the fragility of one’s own existence is suddenly very present …

It is no Covid induced “brush with death” that many face for themselves or loved ones,

but nonetheless a time to reflect …

The world is a beautiful place ...
