Nature in Simplicity

Words are superfluous when Nature is concerned as the harmony, the serenity, and the teeming life itself is beyond description. The next best thing to personally experiencing the sight, the sound, and the scent is through photography, its vividness seemingly jumping out of the picture.

But as far as personal satisfaction goes, nothing seems to be comparable to creating pictures out of a blank page. While this sentiment is held by the creator, the same may extend to the beholder as well. But as the saying goes, beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. I shall then leave it as that, except to say that I derive great pleasure in completing the following pieces, nature in simplicity.

The flowers and their many insect friends: a world of co-dependency.

Delicious black currants (blue?) drooping in numbers.

The Lotus and the unflappable leaves.

The willows, doing an impression of the pyrotechnic display during the day.

The Mei and the bamboo striking a harmonious pose.

The Mei striking out on its own.


Sprouting in unison, Nature's symphony.
