As with anything in life, it takes a little time for the awareness to settle into something new.
I find this with my photography; the first shots are almost always a warm-up for those that follow. |
In this way, I often compare photography to meditation, in which the mind slowly transcends the gross objects of awareness and experiences more subtle thought and feeling.
In fact, this experience is universal in every field. |

What I love about a garden like Butchart Gardens is the amount of care that has gone into every inch of the place.
Everywhere I look, I am drawn into some subtle beauty or another. |
There is hardly any need to walk at all. Standing in one spot, I see amazing color and design in so many directions above me and on the ground below me.
I think, in a place like this, the slower you go the more you get to see. |

A beautiful, arching maple tree bends gracefully toward a simple bridge.
Like stars, you cannot see all the beauty that this garden holds. As your eyes adjust, the stars between the stars are seen. |
Thanks to everyone who filled out the survey last week. There is not enough demand for calendars this year.
