I wonder what Piglet is doing, thought Pooh
I wish I were there to be doing it too.
Today, my daughter completed her undergrad degree, so I do actually know what my girl is doing – unlike Pooh wondering what Piglet is doing. But, I truly wish I were there – to help her celebrate, to help her appreciate the magnitude of her accomplishment.
In a few weeks, I will be able to share her graduation with her. Until then, I’ll just be wishing!
I’m going to throw out a disclaimer right away – this is not my greatest flower shot – as a matter of fact, I had to make the colours in the photo less than ideal in order to highlight what I really find amazing about this shot – those little wings are moving!
Hummingbirds AMAZE me.
“Piglet noticed that even though he had a Very Small Heart,
it could hold a rather large amount of Gratitude” – A.A. Milne
The list of things for which I feel gratitude is long.
Sunshine and purple flowers definitely appear on that list.
I love to photograph things that crawl and fly. Yet, being allergic to bees, it’s not always in my own best interest to photograph bees. But a couple of years ago, my hubby got me a great lens that allows close up shots while standing a ways back. Thankfully!
This shot, like the one from July 27, was taken at the Betty Ford Alpine Gardens in Vail, Colorado last month. This is a beautiful garden that I highly recommend. More shots to come in the days ahead.
There was so much beauty in Colorado – and this shot was part of our hike near Gothic.
