Starting with some open blue sky above us, we ended with spellbinding light as the sun began to set off to the West.
Winter Fog – Land and Sky as One
A commuter’s moment that got me to stop and spend a few unexpected minutes taking in the fog.
Feeling the cold air I let myself get lost in the enveloping light. Even the rising sun was veiled in the luminous density this morning. I only wish I could have spent more time witnessing the transformation of light and landscape as the fog lifted.
First Snow—Merging of Earth and Sky
I am a quite excited to explore the white world of winter and to see what new understandings develop as I open my awareness to this new landscape. The first full covering of snow on the ground with the monochrome white sky created a world where only the horizon offered much indication of division between heaven and earth.
Dramatic Sky Trumps Dull Light on the Ground
The light on the ground during early afternoon at Wentworth Conservation Area could best be described as flat, cold and a little bit depressing. How much the sky seemed to be the opposite. Though a steel gray, I found the dramatic clouds, which were moving rapidly, created a very dynamic luminous visual field. This kind of contrast just reinforces my belief in the importance of taking control of where you put your visual attention. Learning to look up is one way to discover that what might be initially disappointing can, with a shift of attention, turn into something quite remarkable.
