Making waves.

Carried away.

“A lake carries you into recesses of feeling otherwise impenetrable.”

~William Wordsworth

Light my way.

You snooze, you lose?

Scheduling and disagreeable weather held off a trip to the lakefront to see the spring profusion of cherry blossoms. I made it down today – the one day of sunshine between bouts of cold, miserable rain – and found that I was too late to catch the bloom this year.

But there were other, unexpected gifts to appreciate:

A graceful pier from which one can contemplate how the sunlight sparkles on the surface of the water…

 

Leaning shadows and silhouettes to frame and capture…

 

Waterfront pathways to wander…

 

And trees no longer in bloom, but pleasing nonetheless.
