on a mission - 6km ride to Martano
new seedlings and shades of freshly tilled soil along the way. I miss being in mine and this helped fill the need!

these beds continue between the groves! |
.
sun lowers
the
second cycle of the day
a prime time in
distinct shadows and light . a sharpness wraps on to land
the elements
like a tincture,
ripening her day
before the night begins
.
between trees - a turning cycle
of earth

| a recipe of colour mix Burnt Sienna . Deep Red . Mars Black . Alizarin Yellow-Deep and a touch of Pearl White * the land here belches stone and rock continually . a slower surge and rotation from within Terra |
for all the many centuries of tending and cultivating the lands here, local farmers unearth boulders from their land and seems
every season another pile to display
 |
| here shows the slow rise of penetrating rock . a particular signature of this land |

An old man, late 70's hand plows this field . stacking these stones
his, is a strong frame with a natural bend - forward - when he walks . his body fashioned from years of working here.
from this ...

to this!
contrasts of white & rock
in surrounds of grays & scored trunks
and is desert in feel

| a stunning new home built from stones * All Souls Day and many are queuing at flower shops to purchase their bundles, to place at the headstones of loved ones and honor the ancestors |
