Watching the sky at dusk from the terrace had become a daily ritual. I preferred a clear sky, capable of expressing the full range of iridescent colors, but with the indispensable presence of clouds, the quintessential celestial objects. Spring was perfect because the rows of trees along the avenue began to fill the sky with leaves, within easy reach of my terrace. Following the principle of partial obstruction of the visual field, the foreground leaves become fixed and dark silhouettes against a changing background of endless combinations of shapes and shades, and for astral encounters of calm and storm.
