Early Asters

Beautiful contrast -

Parasol whitetop asters,

Against gnarled tree bark

Patterns of Light

I love shadows and patterns created by changes in light and obstructions! What a weird niche I occupy!

The light reflecting off the water here onto a blue boat cover, intermingled with the shadows through the aluminum dock above really caught my eye as I looked for stray European naiads that may have missed early detection.

Such a pretty pattern!
