Enchanted Pathways

Great Brook Farm State Park, Carlisle, Massachusetts


Back in the woods.

 After the palettes of petals and wings,

  into the playground of lights and shadows.

  

 Sprinkled with mushrooms.

  These humble hats.

    Raise from the soil, 

  pushing through the layers of needles and leaves.

   

 Never mind the rocks, will find the way.

 

    As if the whole place is their's to enjoy.

 

  IS IT ?  

    Makes me smile...

What a Flutter !!!

 John J. Donovan Reservation, Hamilton, Massachusetts

Meadows are in bloom and motion.

 Colors of the petals mingle with the colors of the wings. 

  And the wind sways around.


   Among grasses. 

  

  That bird with a seed does not look to be in a hurry.

  

  While Monarchs flutter. 

      

  From flower to flower...


Donovan: ... meadows...

Donovan: ... where the wings mingle with the petals...

Donovan: ... in bloom...

Donovan: ... and the motion becomes a part of the story...

Donovan: ... with the wind swaying among grasses...

Donovan: ... that bird does not look to be in a hurry...

Donovan: ... Milkweed stands proudly...

Donovan: ... for Monarchs...

Donovan: ... gliding...

Donovan: ... from flower to flower...

Donovan: ... meadows...

Donovan: ... inviting flutters...

Donovan: ... and wanderings...

Donovan: ... through Thistles...

Donovan: ... where they find each other...

Donovan: ... and how about me?...

Donovan: ... until the next time...

Soaring Into the Skies

Crane Beach, Ipswich, Massachusetts


Terns are here.

Always at the same time.

Their nests are on dunes, nobody has the pass, do not even get close.


This one is circling above my head.

  Got it, got it. 

     Heading for the waves...


Crane Beach: … ohh, does she know ?…

Crane Beach: … where each feather is meant to be ?…

Crane Beach: … while staying up there…

Crane Beach: … for a brief moment…

Crane Beach: … and then morphs into a glide…

Crane Beach: … yes, she knows…

Crane Beach: … each one…

Crane Beach: … always in the right place…

And The Life Goes ON

Greenough Land, Carlisle, Massachusetts


Here.

 Swampy pond, untamed.

   Where tangible and virtual merge. 

  

 Only the motion makes me see them...  


Greenough Land: … here…

Greenough Land: … swampy pond…

Greenough Land: … untamed…

Greenough Land: … where tangible and virtual merge…

Greenough Land: … only the motion makes me see them…

Breaths of Summer

 Great Brook Farm State Park, Carlisle, Massachusetts


   Hiding in the woods on this hot day... 


Great Brook Farm: ... a glimpse into this hot day...

Great Brook Farm: ... when the leaves are our best friends...

Great Brook Farm: ... and...

Great Brook Farm: ... the caps live well...

Great Brook Farm: ... under the shade...

Great Brook Farm: ... where colors abound...

Great Brook Farm: ... the sun still shines...

Great Brook Farm: ... and my hat turns into a sketchbook...

Great Brook Farm: ... the rocks do not seem to care...

Great Brook Farm: ... even when I step up...

Great Brook Farm: ... to feel the breaths...

Great Brook Farm: ... of flowers...

Great Brook Farm: ... meadowy scents...

Great Brook Farm: ... and nectar...

Great Brook Farm: ... refreshed by a light breeze...
