Nature's fall abundance is so colorful and so brief.

This was a sprig of dead forest litter. Looking fabulous

I walk miles to be enraptured by a dead tendril, and I love it

I expanded today, a bit closer to my truth - less shame about my past.
It can be scary, but it doesn't have to be.
This image can be frightful, or a reminder of fun memories.

Wow, thank you for this. I wasn't familiar with Hookland, but I've been looking into it, and I really appreciate the introduction, and the high compliment! You've given me a whole new lens to see through and it does feel familiar lol!

These are a strange fixture in my favorite nature site, so why not integrate.

I love the process of being captured by the tendrils.

Tiny, fragile, immortalized in death, reaching for something only to find nothing.

Fall is full of decay and abundance. One is not more important than the other

A dead botanical stalk, surrounded by colorful abundance, continuing all around

Much like my mind, my lens lets me be precise about what ascends to relevance - and more importantly, what does not.

I've been distracted lately, but in a good way.
