Unperishable Souvenir
Birch fences are part of my youth where I was living,at that time my mother was in chock seeing sheeps or cows in our vegetables garden and we could see hay bundles sleeping on the field.Of course I knew that if I followed the birch fence I would find the first blueberries for the love of my life,my father…a ritual I did for most of my youth.At first I only had a few bleuberries but what a treat I had looking to my father eating the first handful of those tasty wild berries.I was so proud and happy…. :))

Outstanding, as many of your works are!! The underplay of color balancing the gray fog is living, breathing and I can feel the lichens on the log fence, Micmac!

holy smokes Gigi what an memory your description brings to mind …and of course this photo..it’s like you took me back 40 yrs in time when we too would search the fields around Amherst NS for wild blueberries ..with our quart milk bottle that we would have plans of selling to some neighbors wife for a quarter …but at last we just ended up eating them ourselves…such beauty that comes from you…thanks for sharing this dear…..Steve…ok i meant 45yrs..lol
