CHRISTMAS ISLAND NEAR PARIS FLAT~DECEMBER 2007
Today, it is snowing and getting colder this week. I don’t feel up to gearing up and venturing out. I got the lights up today as the snow started. The steelhead are in. As I looked at this pic from a year ago, I recalled the warmth, the wind, and the amazing visual assault of the flats. As if on some psychedelic cocktail, I recall the way a seemingly flat body of water, with nary a bump higher than a foot, can tilt and slant and climb. Are you hallucinating? Fatigue perhaps? Ill fitting sunglasses don’t help. I found it so fascinating to stand in knee deep water staring for the moving shadow and at the same time always have a sense that you are standing upon or walking upon anything but a ‘flat’. Anyway, that warm water and wind would feel good about now.
