With one foot in the summer, and one foot in autumn, September is a month of squeezing out the last drops of sunshine from each shortening day, while also keeping an eye ahead for what we seek next. It marks that last adventures of, while simultaneously indicating the beginning. There’s a yearning that befalls us as leaves start to fall during hazy warm days. Yearning for and chasing the last light of sunset and finding peace in the dusk just after.
