small worlds

a pause

between forms

Frozen water gathered at the side of an agricultural field. Amongst the frozen ice are strands of straw and other vegetation creating an interesting collage of shapes and textures.

frost / flare

setting sun on the coffin road

dark silhouettes witness

every cycle of light — custodians

of gathered sounds:

birdsong & footfall

passing over frost

***

Setting sun flaring through a copse of slender beech trees, reduced to dark silhouettes against the light. In the foreground the forest floor has a light covering of frost.
