i know it all sounds weird all this talking to myself?  in / thru a blog post, but after hundreds of posts, kinda late to stop now.

october usually brings rains and in the rolling northern landscape; simple depressions in the land fill up / become instant ponds with totally unique momentary ‘shorelines’  inside the forest their edges slowly receeding as the ground absorbs all the excess rain water. autumn continues to rain leaves as well which now float their way thru / across deep forest reflections. 

‘red leaves floating’ is and has been an ongoing idea across several fall seasons, otherwise,  it wouldn’t be an ongoing idea; in this latest study on paper, for a new n interesting client, not only i was able to work out all the difficulties that the earlier attempts presented but am excited to have been able to lose myself in it further / beyond what i had been able before.
