I've spent the last month swimming in light and memory; but lovely,
languid August is over and it's time to resurface. It's been a time of retreat; of refuge, a time to dream, to plan, to
garden, and to marvel; a time of silence. And I know I want and need to come
back to this world but I have a huge resistance to this as "my desire to be well informed is currently at odds
with my desire to remain sane”. [J. found this quote and placed it on my desk, sorry that I don't know who to attribute it to.] So these photos are a prayer for the world, the blue ball we all live on and everything that inhabits it.

ReplyDeleteYou are most welcome, thank you Asta!
DeleteWith these images, you've created for us all that serene retreat within a darker unknown.
ReplyDeleteThanks Victoria, that's wonderful, I suspect we are all looking for that space, elusive though is seems to be at times.
DeleteI understand the sentiment of that quote completely Liz - this time in history is a difficult one it seems to me, and I find the sadness, the madness and the horror each night so difficult. To turn away is much easier. The images are beautiful prayers that somehow speak to me of light out of darkness; of how for every dark and hard place there is, there is another or even more others of light and enlightenment. I hope.
ReplyDeleteI hope too Fiona, thank you and go well
