dark day



This Thursday in Nashville the schools closed early for fear of tornadoes and storms that were expected to pass through. By midday, the streets were almost deserted in my part of town as everyone prepared for the coming deluge...which never really came. We had a bit of rain, some nice dark clouds, but overall it was anticlimactic. I did get a glimpse of the oak in the backyard, tinted a glossy black. The shadows accentuated the pale green lichens growing on the trunk, and thankfully, I could enjoy the dark mood from the safety of my studio.
