… and maybe tomorrow too. This is a daffodil I shot on the visit to Filoli Gardens. It has a color combination that I enjoy, the white and greyish yellow … also an aphid is backlit aginst the white petal on the upper right of the flower. My first inclination was to take him off of the petal, but that would kind of betray having a natural shot, so here he is too, adding a little beauty to life and I was fortunate to capture the scene. Life at work … the bloom is gone but the gift to us is complete and memories of its beauty stored.
The copyedit of the book is done and a few more days of cleaning up all the little items that are necessary. Amazingly they take up a lot of time, oh well the only way to get it done is to do it.
Into my weekend, so have a day filled with love, friends and family … perhaps every day can be like that. Back Monday morning.
Cheers
Ted
…and soon darkness came on, and the lights of the city looked out into the night; and on my way back,
as I went by the magnificent church, it was silent and dark; yet I somehow fancied that I could still here the minister
telling the people about Christ.
And as I turned away from the great stone arches of the magnificent church, now sullenly grand in the mystic glimmer
of the night, I remembered that the Son of Men wandered barefoot over the Judean hills,
and at night had not where to lay his head.
