yesterday at the fen, we explored a side trail along the stream, and i experimented with silhouettes against the big sky.  the fen is now reverting to its stark pre-winter stage, and yet there is still much green life, especially in the water.  as each of the many ghostly white dead trees eventually falls into the swamp, it will provide a habitat for many species to thrive on.  life from death.

of course i included the iconic tree in the swamp.  it’s been about a year since i first started recording its passage through the seasons.  it stands there dead but unchanging amid the vibrant transitory life   flashing by.
i’ll do this in two posts, so please see the sequel.
