So IT Closes

Fresh Pond, Cambridge, Massachusetts

    Or does it ?

Once in nature, the calendar loses its meaning.

Birds are not attuned to days, months, and years.
 These are just instants of time,
    and each instant is the seed that allows them to enjoy the living.
  
   This is what it is all about... 

Fresh Pond : ... an instant of time...

Fresh Pond : ... a seed...

Fresh Pond : ... of the joy of living...

Fresh Pond : ... in the magic of the present moment...

Fresh Pond : ... this is what it is all about...

Middle of the Summer

Mass Audubon Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary, Massachusetts

Middle of the summer, has not rained much. Water in ponds is so low...
   Lilies do not seem to fuss about that,
   their leaves and flowers are in motion, covering much of the surfaces...
 
   ... radiating petals... just perfect...

Ipswich River: ... into the summer...

Ipswich River: ... and she is watching...

Ipswich River: ... eyeing those visitors...

Ipswich River: ... ponds are low... water lilies do not mind...

Ipswich River: ... brimming...

Ipswich River: ... just perfect...

Ipswich River: ... and a passage...

Ipswich River: ... towards the verticals...

Ipswich River: ... Summersweet fragrances...

Ipswich River: ... infusing the pathways...

Ipswich River: ... and the sleepy river...

Ipswich River: ... with the eyes watching...

Ipswich River: ... hidden in the grass...

Ipswich River: ... somewhere in the meadow...
