Seeing 2009 (#82)

It's been a long week.

Going on a retreat this weekend - right on schedule. Looking forward to time for meditation, reflection and renewal.

The lighting in the scene below was oddly flat for a mid-morning, utterly clear day. Still, this serves the mood: a strangely sterile tableau for a setting generally associated with high-energy sport (sans furniture on the courts!) . . . for me this composition suggests a surprising sense of estrangement - of a gathering somehow preempted for unspoken reasons.
