After The Fire

July 23, 2008

This series explores the transition of a forest burned in the Yellowstone fire. At a deeper level I see this as a metaphor for the transitions we all face. While we mourn loss there is also a beauty in that which is fading away, in that which, in it’s leaving, new growth is made possible.  We can overlook that beauty, and miss out on great lessons, if in our urge to move forward we don’t pause to be in the moment with loss.

Nigel is proof of what we all can do if we look past our limitations.  I suspect he thinks that 4th leg was only holding him back and now with 3 legs he travels around showing off his fly ball prowess as well as helping kids learn how to deal with their own challenges.   Here’s the results of our late afternoon time together:  www.DavidChildsPhotography.com/Nigel
