Swamp Witch vibes this last weekend wandering at Barataria Preserve. The gators were super close to the trail and basking in the sun. It was pretty amazing to get this close.

Happy Mardi Gras! Hopefully next year won’t be so bleak and we can actually enjoy it like normal.

I thought it was probably time for an update. I moved back to New Orleans in December. After I get caught up on my orders I can’t wait to roam around Nola photographing things like I used to. Pictured here is one of Anne Rice’s previous homes. This is the one the house in Mayfair Witch series was based on. It’s located uptown on First Street.

After my trip in October, I realized I really need to go back to New Orleans. So I am hoping to move back by the end of the year, provided things work out right. I can’t wait to go home.

I think I’m already missing New Orleans. I can’t wait until I can make it back home for good.

The aspen tree in the Ogham is known as Eadha. It’s associated with language, communication, the wind, endurance and resurrection.
The aspen is the Celtic tree of autumn. In Celtic mythology when the trees tremble in the wind was said to be the trees communicating between this world and the next.

The quivering leaves helped the wind speak with the ancestors while also bearing gifts of inspiration and poetry. For these reasons the aspen was sometimes known as the whispering tree, a sacred tree to the Celts.

These trees definitely make the forest feel otherworldly. Walking down the path of pine trees it suddenly opens up with aspens on either side. They seem to take over the forest and make it seem very fairy taleish.

Fall is finally here! The leaves were changing and I felt like I was in a fairy tale story. It felt as if I would encounter red riding hood coming down the path in front of me. I can’t wait for the snow!
