we cannot create observers
by saying "observe," but by giving them
the power and the means
for this observation and these means
are procured through education of the senses.
that is what.
this morning is.
well...
every time i sit on the deck really.
observation.
breathing in.
my surroundings.
being fully aware.
of all my senses.
feeling so blessed.
that i live in this space.
that all my senses.
are able to come alive.
just by sitting.
and observing.
if i did not.
take this time.
to sit and observe.
i would have missed.
this caterpillar.
i delight in these little beings.
the first photo.
is what i initially saw.
off my right shoulder.
the second.
is gently stepping through.
the foliage.
to get a closer shot.
these are the moments.
that i cherish.
Sunday morning.
His creation.
my camera.
and me.
welcome to coffee hour.
welcome to this Sunday morning.
just BE.

All these shots are beautiful, Robin. They make me think you truly notice nature's beauty.
Ah, and I delight with you as you brings these to me! Such beauty to soak in! It fills the senses! And the caterpillar is not a monarch but the one that looks a lot like it?
Amazing photos--each and every one. You've outdone yourself with these!!! Have a terrific week. Mickie ;)
Love the combination of photos here, their light and balance. Also love your Thoreau quote on the side! Glad to have found your blog, Robin. :)
