I'm a free spirited aging hippie
who loves talking to flowers, chasing rainbows
and photographing all the beauty that surrounds us
Thanks for taking a peek into my little world

in the company of faithful ferns
this little trail marker
 celebrates Spring

Room Dividers

Nature's mysterious 
dividing lines.. Creating forest rooms
Some light and full of life
Some deep and dark where little grows
all magnificently beautiful

I don't see yellow Rhodys very often
Do you?

Saddened

My heart is hurting
my mind unable to grasp
these senseless acts of violence
 My thoughts and prayers 
for the many victims

Illuminating

We have an overgrown Camellia bush out our front door
the porch light illuminates the blooms
making them glow screaming red
I took this around midnight.. I'm nocturnal
through the screen door
ISO 800, f/8, at 1/80th
