As fall transitions into winter here, I wanted to make sure I took the time to reflect on my captured autumn light throughout the last few months. The fall season and months seemed to go by very quickly on my end and with this, it’s even more important for me to mindfully pause and extend my thankfulness for the light’s nourishment (which presented itself in so many forms, btw).
Light continues to become visible to me not only in the sky that surrounds us all, but seen brightly in others….though sincere intentions, supportive relationships, and beautiful creative energy brought into our sacred shared space….
Several of these photos were taken while I was traveling this month in moments of still reflection and simple appreciation.
The moments and meetings of new or renewed connection I enjoyed with students, colleagues, friends, significant others, and creative souls inspired within me a deep sense of gratitude & hope that continues to ascend love & light.
As I continue on my path following the light, it is comforting to remember there are others on this shared journey…. following the light and the forms it takes to nurture a common, higher good…. together.

Thanks for this Gretchen. Love your comment about your path following the light. With the shorter days and longer darkness, this reminds me to turn my face to the Light when it does appear. Blessings. Michele.

Your gathering of the light is a wonderfully symbolic and literal way of internalizing that light for the winter months to come. Beautiful!
