The images in Alms of the woods surrounding my house, contain a mix of emotions from the last year; 2020. Some are calm and optimistic, and others more somber. I used red string to hold the book together as red is sacred in the Buddhist tradition and is the color of their robes, symbolic of the joys and sorrows of life.
