What we see when we open our eyes… with Polek Rybczynski
This was a glimpse, said Polek,... I was streching in the living room when Tae, my 2 year old, was napping, and this was the glimpse when I opened my eyes between stretches.

25mm of rain in the forecast today, so this shot, from Ruben Guibert, cruising around town, while it conjures a summer that seems to have disappeared, was really only one week ago. How can you not love that mountain in the skyline?

This peak. This peak on which we watch snow creep. Our point of reckoning. Captured just 2 weeks ago, bare naked, by Polek Rybczysnki and shared as his contribution to our Sunday Photo of the Week visual chronicle of our valley.
