HOW I GO TO THE WOODS

Ordinarily I go to the woods alone, with not a single

friend for they are all smilers and talkers, and therefore

unsuitable.

I don't really want to be witnessed talking to the catbird,

or hugging the old black oak tree.  I have my way of praying

as you no doubt have yours.

Besides, when I am alone I can become invisible.  I can sit

on the top of a dune as motionless as an uprise of weeds,

until the foxes run by unconcerned.  I can hear the almost

unhearable sound of the roses singing.

If you have ever gone to the woods with me, I must love you

very much.

more of my daily 365 pictures....

 Taking pictures is not hard.  

Taking decent interesting shots each and very day to put up on a photo site

for others to see, judge

much harder.

back posting on 365

A picture a day is what I am trying to do 

and the idea behind 365.. 

Take a picture and post it on 365 thus making me go out, 

look and take pictures.  

Amazing what a challenge like this does. 

 I have tons of pictures, but often I am not thinking seriously

what would be good: good light, good subject, interesting .....

 365 makes this happen.
