Images

Field images, close observations, and visual records from the same world as the notes. Not scenery. Evidence of attention.

selected record

Plot interference

These images work best when they stay quiet: markers, brush, water, bark, road light, small organisms, and places that hold more detail than they explain.

They are not here to decorate the site. They are here to give the archive a physical memory.

Dense tangled brush and thin tree trunks in a forest plot.
Small numbered metal tag set into moss on a tree trunk.
Recovered marker 01

Marker / 0405

A small numbered tag held in moss long enough to feel official.

Dense tangled brush and thin tree trunks in a forest plot.
Field condition 02

Plot interference

Dense brush, thin trunks, and the kind of visibility that turns bad data into work.

Spiderweb catching light beside rough tree bark in the forest.
Close observation 03

Interference

A web line caught beside bark. Almost nothing, until the light changes.

Truck on a forest road at night under stars, lit by red tail light.
Night record 04

Road out

A truck on a forest road under stars. No service, bad light, enough road to keep going.

White water cascading through mossy rocks and dense forest.
Route note 05

Drainage below

Fast water through moss and rock. The kind of place where sound hides direction.

A shaded forest creek running through ferns and wet timber.
Field route 06

Creek / fern cut

A shaded drainage, wet fern, and enough green to make distance hard to read.

Large old tree with heavy split trunks and moss-covered bark.
Old growth note 07

Standing record

A tree with its own architecture. Not symbolic. Just too large to simplify.

Towering moss-covered rock outcrop beneath forest canopy.
Place record 08

Unmarked formation

Moss over stone, old shade, and a scale that does not care who is passing through.

Coiled millipede resting on a pale mushroom on the forest floor.
Small record 09

Surface account

A coiled millipede on a mushroom. A record too small to need explanation.
