Beauty Defies Colour


Here's an Echinacea seed head.
Its unique shape, its points and depths
Capture the light and emphasize the shadows
Creating a canvas on which
Every colour enhances
Its Beauty differently

Go ahead and choose your favourite hue

Disco Daze


Sunlight
finds this plume
of red-tipped grass seed
transforming
it into a sparkling
disco light-show.

Paved With Gold


The road around my wrist
is paved with
Gold.

Glad I could be part
of this Wooly Bear's
Journey.

Glorious Mornings


How does a flower
celebrate
Jack Frost's
tardiness?

It becomes impossibly beautiful.

Raindance Anyone?


Drops of rain
fill up my mossy pond
creating mermaid-patterned,
blue-green swirls

~ perfectly wonderful ~

Glisten and Sway


Nothing beats the beauty and serenity
of tall grasses gone to seed
at this time of year

They sway in the breeze
and glisten in the light
like moving paintings

Here, There and Everywhere


As I close my garden bit by bit
cutting down perennials,
I have to be on the lookout
at all times
for adorable wooly bears.

They lounge on the leaves
of my plants
or hide in cracks
to keep warm and safe
for the winter.

They always bring a smile
to my face
when I scoop them up,
all curled in a tight furry ball,
to move them to a safer location.

Resonance


Let us be silent,
that we may hear
the whisper of the bell.

I don't know what it is about this rusty old bell...
I've had it for years and taken many pictures of it.
No matter when, regardless of the light or the weather, 
it always comes out beautifully.
The definition of photogenic :)

Spiders With Wings?


The spiders are keeping busy
in my fall garden.

What do you think this one's planning to do
with this feathery seed?

October Light


Caught this elegant spider spinner her web
in the afternoon light
in my garden

Made me think of...
