A Vaulted World
I was having some trouble with this image in my mind. Trying to write a haiku. But the image still wanted to be born. So here it is. Although I shot it with a digital point and shoot, this is what I would have wanted a Horizon camera to see: A panoramic view with saturated color film. This is just the drawing board for an image I’d like to create…. the immediate feeling that the world that you see with your eyes can change when viewed through a simple raindrop.
Hidden
I see a small creature pulling up the covers to its face. Or a bunch of little people inside and at the edge of a cave’s cliff. Either way, they’re all hidden.
Mint
Mint is one of my favorite herbs.
My top uses:
Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
Mint Juleps
Mojitos
Clovers
It’s an interesting read at Wikipedia about the different species of clovers and shamrocks. I’ve no idea which ones these are but they are in our garden.
Star Cluster
This flower was very striking in the garden. Its the size of my thumbnail but very demanding of its presence. Again, I don’t know the name of it. But for sure, someone will tell me ;)
Blue Hydrangea
I see a galaxy in this cluster. So beautiful.

Arabian Jasmine & Fiery Skipper Butterfly
This is definitely an Arabian Jasmine. But what kind of moth is this? Does anyone know? And this is definitely a Fiery Skipper Butterfly (thanks Amy!)

Eternity
To see the world in a grain of sand, and heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour. – William Blake
