Probably the key principle underpinning my world view is “becoming not being”.
It seems to me that change is continuous and ubiquitous. I’m fascinated with transition, with transience and with those moments where you see the world change before your very eyes.
The photo above is of the light from the setting sun catching the wires strung across the vineyard to give the vines structure to climb in the spring. The vineyards are busy places in February. All day and every day there are viticulturists out tending to the vines. It seems to me they are active agents of change, preparing and tending, directing and nurturing….
I turned and looked to the West and at that moment the sunlight illuminated the plastic sheaths installed to protect the vines….
Quite a different image….almost abstract in its appearance, and a nice example of the interplay between the observer, the observed, the viewpoints, and the source of light.
