“There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature - the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after winter.”
― Rachel Carson, The Sense of Wonder

I keep walking to that same spot at the edge of the field, knowing exactly where to stand in those few meters and waiting at the last moment to turn my head to the right, knowing exactly what I will see. And yet the view is amazing every time. I have dozens of roughly similar photos of this wave of trees but which are also unique depending on the seasons, the light and the activities in the field. I love to travel and see new landscapes but I also agree with Rachel Carson: there is something extremely reassuring and calming about repetition and consistency, not only in nature, but in photography and life.

The "Wave" in May, July, October 2024 and February 2025.

I played Skyrim quite a lot (still would if my huge mod list hadn't crashed and burned finally). More recently I've played Baldur's Gate 3; my wife ADORES it for, perversely, the very same reason that disinterested me: an endless abundance of story branches. She loves exploring all the myriad branches in dialogue and actions that result in different sideline outcomes. I would like that, too, except for all the #repetition to explore them all!

Pudding Creek Bridge

The Pudding Creek Bridge, at one time a railroad bridge that ran along the Pacific Coast in Northern California.
The bridge was built by the Union Lumber Company in 1915 to help facilitate the shipment of redwood trees from the 10 Mile River drainage area to the mills in the town of Fort Bragg.

Pudding Creek Bridge The Pudding Creek Bridge is an old railroad trestle bridge that spans across Pudding Creek and Pudding Creek Beach in Fort Bragg, Ca. This image is a study in repetition and diminishing views. The foreground shows a little bit of the sand from Pudding Creek Beach at ground level. The rest of the image is a repetition of the trestles as they become smaller and smaller with each set until they are no longer distinguishable.
