patterns

i’ve been thinking about the patterns of my life . . . the ebb and flow . . . the constantly evolving kaleidoscope of colors . . . the rich and varied textures . . . the sights and sounds of nature that surround me and profound me . . . all illustrated here in photos i took while tooling around ohio yesterday.



blue skies in the morning


afternoon's sparse, sprinkled rain



dramatic, cloudy evening



viewed thru nature's window pane



the blur of my existence



where shadows make no sense



the image gets much clearer



when seen thru nature's lens



lost in a crowd of sameness



or standing all alone



it's all about perspective



and the truth you want to own



there's beauty in nature's details



and the grid lines made by man



i'm in awe of open spaces



and life's most wondrous plan

You REALLY need to publish a book, Julie; I'd buy it in a heartbeat!!!

Glad to hear that you survived your first week ... hope you're still doing well! Oh. And better rested this week!
