I was just glancing down at the clock and calendar of the computer after completing a stack of tasks tonight and said to myself, Thirty days has September, April, shit. Because of course it’s time for the end of the month abstract and I didn’t have anything prepared.
Not only that, but I shot extremely little this month, for reasons that will eventually become clearer, though it won’t be for a while yet. So I dug this out, one that just barely made it through the sort in the first place, and not even shot this month, but the tail end of May instead.
Is this all lichen, or do some trees just have bark that always looks like this, or what? I don’t know – I just know I’ve done better in this regard, both with much more interesting-looking bark and from an abstract standpoint.
If the heat breaks, maybe I’ll be more motivated to go out and shoot something – and the same might be said if it doesn’t break, though we’re talking different definitions now. It’s been over a month with nothing more than a sprinkling of rain, not enough to even register on a gauge, and the plants look horrendous; we really are hoping for a hurricane at this point. But I’ll stop bitching now…
