to look in-
zen garden

 

Upside down by Tom Clausen
blossoming wild
blossoming blue
daisy days
blue blossoming
whitetail dragonfly resting on a reed while clouds roam above and below...
frog twangs off and on around the little pool...
hosta leaves had such beautiful water droplets magnifying the leaf pattern-texture and showing some sun shine too... Here is a series of these rain droplets at the Cornell Botanic Garden
