October Leaf Story

every year the story
is nearly like years before
this time of year

stories of a distant war
across stormy seas

as vivid as the stars


as darkness finds
intensive colours
out of shadows

deep in the shade
we see colours
in a few small twigs


just at dark's edge 
the colour is intense

but still we can see
a dusky shape or two

at an edge of shadow
where light is rare
but still illuminating

what we almost can't see
a kind of miracle

I make photos to make myself feel good; I share in hope of making you feel good. I do as much as I can in the camera, but it does not always end there. Part of making an image in the 21st century is processing a captured image in the computer. This is like dodging and burning in the darkroom of yesterday. (I've done that too.) I use Photoshop cc and Lightroom cc. The result is not always what I saw, sometimes more what I wish I saw. Sometimes, the resulting image is a creation more than a recording. Most of the time, I keep it believable and realistic. I have a Bachelor's degree in Creative Writing. I have shared poems on the internet, to an audience with more than 150 million views and I'm considering making a selection of poems, in a book or books.
