november gardening
november gardens, when everything has begun to wilt and decay, but before the snow falls, may be my favorite harvest season. i recently watched a documentary on piet oudolf, the designer of the nyc high line gardens among many other famous gardens. the documentary showed the expansive gardens surrounding his home in the netherlands through a whole year. the late-fall, early winter garden, frozen between blooming and being blown clean, was by far my favorite. his too, it turns out.

your use of language is as stunning as the photography. “Frozen between blooming and blown clean.” Such a perfect metaphor for this time in history in the middle of a pandemic. Thank you for providing such wonderful inspiration!
