The day to day routines of life have been upset with the world in the grips of this Covid 19 Pandemic. Concerns about where to travel to capture photos of wildlife and landscapes this spring are superseded by where to safely get food and how to get a bit of exercise. As it turns out the best thing most of us can do is …nothing. Just stay home, adhere to the rules of hand washing and sterile technique in our daily rituals. Luckily we have the ability to stay in touch with family and friends with electronic media and I am grateful for that. But there is still a lot more unexpected down time with not a lot to do, at least for me. This is a bit unsettling however and it takes some adjustment to come to terms with this new normal, this new found time to reflect on things. I’m trying to make the best of it, hopefully we will get through this disaster and life can go on, with all of society and as individuals a bit smarter and stronger. Here is a photo from last winter I think captures the mood of introspection.
