The milkweed looks so delicate the way you present it. It's really pretty tough and takes a pretty good beating from the wind. I think it's like a lot of people. Tough on the outside, but when you take the time to get to know them, they really are delicate. Another fine macro post Gerry.
"I never looked for it, gave it no name; yet I knew it always, when the gift of peace came. I stood quite still for the moment that it lasted...Then the light shifted slightly and the moment passed, leaving me...with the lasting echo of its presence.." Diana Gabaldon
I wonder if the nature preserve that you frequent has a building with photos on the walls. I am sure that yours would look just wonderful hanging on those walls, Gerry!
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.
