Recently I posted a photo of this tree fort on a sunny day, but early this morning there was a fog warning and I rushed down the the inlet where I knew the fog would be thick. I took several photos of forts built along the railway track, but this one, with the bridge in the background, was my favourite.
A Fence in the Forest
Osaka, Thursday, 4 aM
Osaka, Thursday, 4 a.m. The shadows seem to try to be menacing. The streets want to be empty.
A Walk in the Woodlands after the Rain.
Here in British Columbia it has been raining for 7-8 days straight. The weather reports says to expect another 7-10 days of rain. When I saw the rain had stopped, even if just for an hour or so, I knew this would be a time to take some images and drove in the dark to Richmond to a small part area that is maybe 3 city blocks square. There was a bit of waiting while the sun came up, and then I walked quickly into the woods in case the clouds totally lifted. I went down the single path that makes its way between the trees and underbrush. There are lot’s of birch trees, but most are dying because the bog has nowhere to flow and being surrounded by streets never really dies out with the change of seasons and the roots just rot our. As they fall in a windstorm some of their white branches can become caught in the web of other branches. In the photos the broken bits look like they are magically floating, refusing to leave the sky.
A Walk in the Garden
There was a big rainstorm last night. Landslides have blocked the way to and from the mountains. I wore boots in the garden, expecting mud, but was confronted by clear and deep water in the grass. When I got to the compost pile I remembered late October.

Osaka Nights #1
Osaka, the Mirror in the Window
Upon arrival in Osaka, on my way to elsewhere, I ran into this window with a mirror. I took this image with my iPhone.
