Verlyn Klinkenborg's column today, "Night Vision", is worth running your eyes over.
As I write this, a massive Ginko, all leafed out in fabulous yellow, is in view.
If that won't keep one grounded, I don't know what will.
And here's a shot over the James, near Pony Pasture, with the moon hanging like an ornament.

I've written here before about Verlyn Klinkenborg and his gift with the language. His piece yesterday, "Seasonal Slippage," is wonderfully evocative, calling us into the present season and the present moment.
PS: The image above is an iPhone pic I snapped over near Fredericksburg yesterday. It's not hard to visualize Klinkenborg in the yard there, in his barn jacket.

Verlyn Klinkenborg's column, "Really Looking," is a welcome and refreshing "witness to the moment," as he puts it. (This post takes its title from his mini essay.) Indeed, Klinkenborg opens my eyes on a regular basis.
And Raimon Panikkar, who died in recent days (and whose obituary
was published over the weekend), spent his entire life, it would seem,
opening the eyes of his fellow Christians; and the eyes of people of
other faiths as well, I'm sure. I had not read Panikkar previously, but
just what I read of him and his writing in his NYT obituary was
exhilarating.
I give thanks for Verlyn Klinkenborg, and for Raimon Panikkar, both in their own ways helping to open the eyes of humanity.
