Some of the following are part of the ""new future" series above. Some of Challenges being faced include drought, pollution ["Play"], and senseless school shootings ["Interruption"].

Walking in forests reminds me of renewal and regeneration.

Miscellaneous

All images continue my immersion in Anthropocene themes--extinction, drought, deforestation, collapse as represented by the graffiti building. But they also represent the inflection point of taking new directions.
Working with the same sunset photo taken during the California fires in 2020: the first is about our need for meditation. The other two reflect frustration about trash that finds its way into the oceans, increasing acidification. The fourth image with two fish left in the aquarium. The fifth image is about efforts to reclaim toxic or stressed environments.
