Gecko on Wind-Scoured Loire Ridge in on a wind-scoured ridge in the Loire Valley

Gecko on Wind-Scoured Loire Ridge

by Darryl Hodge

Pale gray stone dominates the frame, its surface rough and pitted by years of wind. A small gecko rests on the vertical wall, its skin textured in shades of sand and slate. Late afternoon light cuts across the ridge, sharp and dry despite the light drizzle. Tiny water droplets bead on the lizard's scales and the stone, catching the weak sun. The background melts into a soft blur of muted browns and greens, suggesting the early winter landscape of the Loire Valley. The gecko remains still, its dark eye reflecting the clear, cold air. one drop of water slides slowly down the stone near its tail.
