it’s still february

it’s funny. i consider myself a generally pretty upbeat person. and yet, i always respond to these somber, spare, winter photos (that some might find a little depressing) more than summer and autumn photos whose colors seem to leap for joy. i guess STILL is not, in the end about leaping for joy. it’s about simplicity. and soothing earthy palettes, and breathing room, and pauses to appreciate the unshowy expressions of nature. STILL is a lot of things, including a certain february mood.
