Sit back and relax; listen to this clip of running water and the birds chirping in the background. It’s been a frustrating time while most of us are in lockdown, quarantined, frozen in time, and uncertain about what the future holds. These are weird times. The stranger that life becomes the more necessary it is to take refuge in nature. Nature is unchanged in its ways and is always going to deliver healing when we are open to it. Nature always provides clean air, calming sights and sounds and forces us to be more in the moment than we are when we’re at home distracted by digital devices. I hope this post brings you a little solstice and relaxation in such times.
Above are a couple more macro lichen captures; they are such a joy to photograph. Also, check out the tree with the eerie hands and message “help me”.
