Our photographers share their images – every weekend – wordlessly.

And that’s as it should be.

An offering.

A moment of quiet, stillness, contemplation.

For you to interpret as you will.

But I couldn’t help, in the thick of flu season, but see the offerings of nature in Dave Steer’s images today, of snow-cloaked rosehips, as if, in every single seed, drying out on a branch, the universe is saying, there’s nothing a season brings, without offering a cure.
