Colorless Contrasts...

It rained most of today. So, we decided to forgo our weekly soccer match and spare the pitch the usual trampling. After helping the kids with their homework, and dwelling on their "coming of age" moments and other complexities, I decided to search for clearer contrasts around the neighborhood.

After a rainstorm...the tiny groves in a wooden plank align with an earthworm's natural divisions.


Tiny raindrops cling to the edge of a blade of overgrown grass along the local bike path.
