I did try for the long view, instead of the
pretty flowers. When we look at A Flower, the camera and I are mostly on the
same page. The long view leaves me befuddled. Why doesn't the &%$#ing
camera see what I see? Overexposed, or focused on a plane the human eye doesn't notice. The wrong edge of the wrong petal, of the wrong blooming flower!
Walking down the driveway as you turn to the
front door the edge of the gravel has a bunker of nasturtiums. The summer sun
starts to bite, and later will shrizzle the leaves, leaving the seed to wait
for March, coolth, and the first rain. But for now we have thousands of
flowers.

In the pond are frogs and tadpoles the size of
my thumb.
