What Remains. A Little Sculpture

Dry leaves of teasel.  Sunnyfield, September 2026

This is my first experimental little "sculpture"of dry teasel leaves.

I decided to experiment with this style because the natural background behind the dry teasel leaves was cluttered and I had no way to change it, so I replaced the background with a simple texture.

The Empty Nest

 

North Arm Wild Trail, September 2026

This morning marked my return to the North Arm Wildlife Trail, a familiar stretch that had been off-limits for nearly two years.

I was heading toward the osprey nest, full of quiet anticipation. Approaching the nest brought a touch of disappointment—the nest stood empty. I had really hoped to catch even a fleeting glimpse of the birds today. Still, simply walking on the trail again was a gift in itself.
