Museum of Amazing Events

Leaf follows crocus and daffodil and forsythia so quickly that a casual once-a-day glance cannot satisfy.

After reading my camera guide to manual macro options again and again, slowly enough now to absorb at least some of the many startlingly sophisticated features, I wandered among the museum of amazing events taking place in my yard.

Like the birth and death of stars unfolding light-years away, unseen until Hubble and its scientists showed us distant events, my camera revealed similar endings and beginnings of great beauty.


No fanfare, really, no show -- just nature being.
