That said, I did manage to take a number of photos during the course of the hike, this one coming on the heels of a "trick photography" shoot yesterday. As I was framing a shot of the Mountain, I happened to notice that the curves of two adjacent tree trunks matched almost exactly in both size and arc, making it appear that there was only one tree which was both broken and unbroken, a subtle but nonetheless forced perspective. The novelty of the arrangement and coincidence of the previous day's shoot secured its spot in today's 365 Caws.
365Caws is now in its 14th year of publication, and was originally intended to end after 365 days. It has sometimes been difficult for me to find new material, particularly during the winter months, but now as I enter my own twilight years, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to provide daily posts. It is my hope that along the way I may have inspired someone to a greater curiosity about the natural world. If so, I can rest, content in the knowledge that my work here has been done.
