I knew that I haven't taken as many photographs recently
so when I took the dog for her evening walk
I took my mobile, 'just in case.'
I was only outside for about 15 minutes in all
As I walked and looked and looked...
I looked up and noticed a veined pattern
in the branches of naked tree tops...
and another in the melting snow...
Then I told myself to look for more patterns....
and then I couldn't stop seeing them!
in the earth trodden snow...
in a row of victorian workers cottages
in a row of sycamores in front of them
in the ice cold pavement slabs
as it was just next to freezing
in the brick wall with their pink and purple hues
bitten with lichen...
it's strange what and how you see when you really LOOK...
and I rushed dog home to excitedly upload them to my laptop!
