Talbot Lake. There was a fire here in 2003. As long as I've been going to Jasper this area has been bare. Only now can I can I see the pine coming back and they'll still be relatively small by the time I die. Nature makes me understand how insignificant we are.
But it is encouraging to see that after nineteen years, Nature has done a lot of healing at Talbot Lake - just like a nurse.
ReplyDeleteI had to increase the picture size to see the pines that are growing on the other side of the lake. Amazing, the will to live.
ReplyDeleteWe are so very insignificant and somehow, that reassures me.
ReplyDeleteIt's comforting to know that natural patterns continue despite us!
ReplyDeleteI like being a small part of a bigger and more powerful universe. It's wonderful to see the growth.
ReplyDeleteWe might be insignificant but we manage to destroy a lot of nature. Enjoy your break.

ReplyDeleteThe beauty of Canadian landscape as seen through your eyes always moves me.
