The loss of life and the impact of the Japanese earthquakes and the resulting tsunami destruction has been horrifying to have witnessed.

Every attempt at creating something bright seems to have a air of lamentation.

Love to Japan and its people in these uncertain times.

An emotional week, with my son becoming a teenager.

As the fields around here are bursting with their harvest, I am even more aware of the speed with which time is passing. Another Summer is fading as Autumn closes in.

I felt the need to create and share a little piece that shows both my joy and my lament.
