A Very Beautiful Thought

If nature were not beautiful,
it would not be worth knowing,

and if nature were not worth knowing,
life would not be worth living.

Oh what beauty! I would love to have some of your photos made into those light covers that are popular in offices. You know, when you look up you see the cherry blossoms overhead, outlining the blue sky laced with puffy white clouds. I picture little light boxes around my interior walls, down low, like windows to the garden outside. There your art would brighten my inside world. OK, my designer brain kicked in... sorry...

You pair your photos and quotes so well... like an excellent pairing of a wine and cheese they compliment each other, the two becoming more than they were separately.

Splendid Little Stars,
The wonder of nature is the best possible.

MzzLily,
I love your idea, it would be Spring all year round inside. Very nice.

Bell,
I will come over and take a look.

TC,
Thanks. I know what you mean about the redundant thing. I feel like my vocabulary has decresed. Maybe one of these days.

Jenn,
Thanks, the first one is my favorite, I love pink dogwoods.

I wish I had had a blanket with me the day I was in the park, I would have done just that.
