Winter Reflections
For sundry reasons, I haven’t edited and uploaded photographs after recent walks at Lost Lagoon in Stanley Park. Yes, I admit I could have pushed myself harder to bring the Lightroom processing to completion but because I don’t want photography to become a chore, I decided to give myself a break and make resting and reading priorities after finishing the daily to-do/must-do lists. Now, during these latter days of January, I have more free time and energy so I’ll try to catch up before the end of the month. Revisiting these images now after the recent extreme cold and heavy snowfalls gives me comfort in the midst of a growing sense of solastalgia.
