A rainy day in a spring forest. I was teaching a workshop on a particularly rainy day.

Beech trees with almost neon green colored leaves which were heavy from the raindrops made for perfect wigwam shapes of foliage. The tree trunks and fallen trees in the forest floor were glistening and the trees looked saturate in colour. It was one of the most beautiful days I ever spent in this forest, no matter how wet it was
