there’s something about the light in western lands that makes things look soft and light and delicate… especially the way they fall on whites….

i love my country, but tropical sunlight is harsh, too bright, too hot, too unforgiving, tinted with yellows, not softly hued blue.  i can never capture that lightness of being you can get in other further lands. (both in photos and in reality)…
