Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without. ~Buddha

October 5, 2014 by owfotografik

Peace On Earth Peace in the shape of a gently curving bunch of flowers. Strong and tall in the purest of intentions. White and brilliant as it stands for what it believes in. On the way to the sky and into the heavens. All around us is the scent of the most beautiful day. Wafting its way into our hearts and bringing joy to anyone who inhales. Earth is a level of what we experience and on its way to […]

Every flower is a soul blossoming in nature. ~Gerard De Nerval

September 26, 2014 by owfotografik

Lady In Waiting Lady of the mountain. Wistful and sweet. Always looking for her lover to appear. Seeking kisses of golden sunshine and shivering in anticipation. In a delicious state of wanting. She opens her petals to the light and seems to know that it will sustain her. A promise of an adventure and a glimmer of hope for a full life. Waiting for the sun to arrive and wanting a morning treat. She is beautiful and delicate as the […]

Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished. ~Lao Tzu

September 17, 2014 by owfotografik

Pretty Pouting Pink Tulip An interesting reminder indeed. Nature does not hurry and yet everything is accomplished. I have a difficult time keeping this in mind. I tend to want to get things done and move on to the next task. Hurry through life in search of what it is that I am supposed to be doing. The frantic pace of existence is overwhelming to me and yet I feel lost without chaos. Maybe that is one of the reasons […]

We are all born for love. It is the principle of existence, and its only end. ~Benjamin Disraeli

Pink Echinacea Garden Artwork I really LOVE flowers. I have taken thousands of photographs of them over the years and studied probably millions of them. I can’t pass by without noticing their vivid colors and captivating energy. When I look at a flower I am transported to the magic of its colorful life. A flower is a beginning and an end. When it is in full bloom, right around the corner is eventual demise. So the beauty is in the […]

In three words I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life: it goes on. ~Robert Frost

August 16, 2013 by owfotografik

Glorious White Rose What can I say about a white rose? I love it and I planted it years ago. Each spring I anticipate its return and look forward to the soft scent and vibrant colors. This is one of many on a bush but more special indeed to be singled out. I love the soft yellow and pink dancing in and out of the picture and also the many other colors vying for attention in the background. I enjoy […]

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit. ~Aristotle

Raspberry Reflections The raspberry bush in my garden is an heirloom variety that I was given by my Mother and it came from her garden. I can only imagine how many generations removed are these berries from the first berry in that initial harvest. How much sweeter is the taste and how much plumper the fruit after many years of tender loving care and warm sunshine. Practice makes perfect I have always heard and it believe it now more than […]

What the caterpillar calls the end of the world the master calls a butterfly. ~ Richard Bach

July 11, 2013 by owfotografik

Butterfly Kisses is the name of this painting. I love my garden and all of the creatures that reside there. From the beneficial insects to the floating beauties and the stinging pests. All of the animals and plants are in harmony and each has its purpose. This type of butterfly, I am pretty sure is a Western Tiger Swallowtail. We have many of them floating around and I am always happy to see their bright bodies soar from flower to […]

Humans may soon regenerate damaged body parts like salamanders

May 23, 2013 by owfotografik

“Australian researchers have isolated an immune system cell in salamanders which helps it regenerate missing limbs and damaged organs — and they suspect the same thing could work in humans, too. Salamanders, or axolotls, are unique among vertebrates in that they’ve got remarkable regenerative powers. Adults can literally regrow and restore function to any part of the body, including the spinal cord and heart — even parts of the brain. Moreover, the regenerated tissue is scar free; once repaired, the […]

Tropical Garden

May 23, 2013 by owfotografik

“A garden requires patient labor and attention. Plants do not grow merely to satisfy ambitions or to fulfill good intentions. They thrive because someone expended effort on them.” Liberty Hyde Bailey
