<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><span class="wpsdc-drop-cap">T</span>he environmental movement is associated with the colour green – often rightly so. However, water is our life blood. It is the life blood of the food that we eat, the plants that keep us breathing, and the dominant building block of our very own bodies. Water carries the weight of the Earth’s entire living history. A single drop is worthy of praise.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><span class="wpsdc-drop-cap">U</span>p close leaves are strange wee things, aren’t they? Their extreme colours, their nutrient carrying veins – every point connected and separated. Nature makes patterns that the strengths of human innovation may never quite master without a fuller appreciation and reflection on the nuances of our world.&nbsp;</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><span class="wpsdc-drop-cap">I</span> watched the sun paint the hills, every moment in its descent brought forward new strokes of colour, new crooks and shapes. The air was fresh with candour and the slight wind accentuated the silence. Shadows provided new hiding spots in the absence of trees. The calm of sunset obstructs your mind from the cold night.&nbsp; </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><span class="wpsdc-drop-cap">I</span>’ve been trying to connect with nature, its stillness. Everything moves like thunder, while every day I sit at home. Nature moves with the same slow pace, sometimes quickening but always constant.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The tops of hills and mountains usually get all the artistic glory. I find the greatest beauty is sometimes hidden in between those tops, in the valleys at the bottom of the hills. In autumn the colour, the life, asks you to keep looking, go higher. </p>
