As I left home one morning not too long ago, my attention was drawn to the ground. There, a fallen leaf lay filled with dew drops sparkling in the gray light of the morning like jewels. I just had to run back in and get my camera. On closer inspection, the subtle colors, the intricate detail, the masterful composition -- everything was just so perfect, and now I have this image to remind me to slow down, observe, and enjoy those little things in life that can really make the day come alive.
I love that leaf! You should make an Encaustic of it!
ReplyDeleteHmmm, maybe not encaustic because I don't want lose detail, but I'd definitely like to do something with it...maybe print it on wood.
