    The Ugly Bug Ball..

    The weekend blessed us with mild temps and no thunderstorms. I showed my gratitude by going outside as much as possible. Just look what I found! There were also birds and chipmunks and squirrels and oh! I even had a hummingbird visit me while in the back yard. It was too elusive for my camera…

    Gotta’ Find Some Grub

    I love the weekend. Not just because I don’t have to get up before the sun, force myself to face the shower and go to work, but because of all the wonderful opportunities these 48 hours afford me. I usually start my weekend with coffee on the back porch, phone and camera at the ready,…

    Framing My World..

    In case you ever wondered if I really do take photos in my meager little faerie garden, in case you doubted my obsession with the tiny miracles that often go unnoticed and happen every moment, whether we see them or not-my hubby snapped this one while I was otherwise engaged. There were some pretty amazing…

    Faeries Have Arrived… #Photography

    Not five minutes after I mentioned that the last to visit my garden were the faeries, I got a surprise! This beauty showed up and stayed with mein the garden, even allowing me to catch a few photos. I would swear it set this one up as a pose!     I hope you each…

    Come to the Cone! #flowers #photography

    Since we lived in Costa Rica I have been addicted to photographing all things small-those magical wonders so easily passed over and subsequently ill appreciated. It was a simple thrill for me to photograph small gardens where butterflies fed on the nectar of cone flowers as bees gathered golden treasure to spread from bloom to…

    As the World Falls Down..

    Of late I have been avoiding the overwhelming feelings that wait at my heart’s door. The tap, tapping of despair, frustration, anxiety and disappointment wait, torches held high and voices crying out, to rouse my soul into complete and utter fear over what is becoming of this world. While there has always been chaos and…

    In the Garden #SoCS

    When the noise of existing becomes so loud that the cry of my soul is muted and the tears I shed wash over my heart as the anchor of despair pulls me  beneath a sea of dark sorrow, I remember why I came to this spinning orb, Wonderland of diversity- the challenge of survival a…

    “Hi, hello there. I heard you were missing your small green Florida pals. I see you’re planting a garden too.” “Hmmm….those rose bushes look promising. And salad in a pot? Clever! Photos? Why certainly you may. Just be sure to get my good side.”     “Do you like this beard? I try to eat…

    Nature’s Face/Photography/Poetry

    At times I trudge through my life, sometimes with steps as light as air,  yet often as though pulling lead balls chained to my ankles; still,  I find constant comfort in the face of Nature.  We have had a dreary sort of Winter, although the holidays were bright and full. The unrest in the world…
