The year holds its breath before the downward swing of the wheel. Quiet hike in the Catskills today. 1. Conifers. 2. Club moss. 3. Drying pond becomes meadow. 4. Signs of change.

Wide-angle photograph looking uphill into a row-planting of conifers. A footpath climbs the remnants of an old road through the woods. Sun casts sharp shadows. Up-close photograph of a thicket of clubmoss growing on the forest floor. Photograph of a meadow encroaching upon an upland pond, beneath a forested ridge. Small clouds dot blue sky. Photograph of my hand holding up a small yellow maple leaf in dappled forest light.
