Footprints of the Ephemeral
September 8 - 30, 2023
e·phem·er·al /əˈfem(ə)rəl/
lasting for a very short time, transitory, fleeting, brief, temporary, fading, momentary, change, disappearance, transformation, passing of time
I have always been in awe of nature’s quick, short-lived moments of perfection. I like to pause to witness a flower that rarely emerges, to experience the changing moods of the sky, to ponder the unique flow of a river or a waterfall. To feel, breathe, and be part of those precise moments when the seasons change. To hear animal migrations begin and end in a few seconds.
Recalling and capturing these fleeting moments is to track the passing of time, noting that life goes on and there is more to see, feel, and appreciate. I want to notice the details and be part of nature’s forward walk; the dynamic shifts in time, and its unpretentious beauty. Moment by moment.
