1. Wild swimming in a special place
2. Self-seeding astonishment
3. Endlessly, water dragons
Learning to notice and then look slowly.
Eastern water dragon laying along the top ledge of a concrete storm drain that’s filled with reeds bent by recent water flow.
Tiny shrimp coloured multilayered petals of a portulaca flower coming up through a concrete crack. Orange and dark red flare at the centre.
Shallow water flowing across a rock ledge, Australian bush trees in the background. The water falls into a deeper pool not in the picture.
