Strange Sky and Winter Trees

Strange Sky and Winter Trees

If you guessed that I am, once again, indulging my mud puddle jones then you are absolutely correct. It does make an otherwise mundane image other-worldly, as if you were not quite here or there but where?

Looking Backward

Looking Backward

… yet always in the same place.

Fenced

Fenced

Photo by Roman.

‘But it is not your own Shire,’ said Gildor. ‘Others dwelt here before hobbits were; and others will dwell here again when hobbits are no more. The wide world is all about you: you can fence yourselves in, but you cannot for ever fence it out.’

— J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

Dark Passage

It was actually the afternoon, but it was dark beneath the bridge. It made the lights reflected by the car all the more interesting.

The weather as reflected by the hood of a car. It’s another one of those cosmos in a drop of water moments for me…
