I had a busy start to the weekend.
I had to work Friday night into Saturday morning. (I will tell you the story
behind that, but it will have to wait until this Friday.)
I got home early Saturday morning
and found that though I was very tired, I couldn’t fall deeply asleep. I dozed
off and on until it was time to feed Chase Bird about 6 a.m. Then I went back
to bed and tried again.
Saturday passed in a blur of
sleep, going out for a late lunch, reading, and more sleep.
Sunday I knew what I wanted to do.
I had been eying some Queen Anne’s Lace along the street across from our house.
I wanted to get some close-ups.
My camera has been sitting in its
bag for much of the summer. I just haven’t felt the energy or desire to capture
slivers of the world.
The Queen Anne’s Lace was my
get-back-into-it bit of nature.
It felt good to use my camera to
get out of my own mind for a while. And being out in nature reminds me—if I am
mindful—that I am not the center of the universe.
That’s a pretty good thing to
remember, don’t you think?
Oh Tina CAPTURE MORE NATURE it is very healing. HUGS B
ReplyDeletethey are marvelous blooms. :) i hope you're back into a more normal sleep mode, now. :)
ReplyDeleteGood for you! I try to always carry my camera. If I had a smart phone it would be easier. I think I confuse the lace with wild parsnip. Nice shots.
ReplyDeleteLovely. What a great thing to do after an exhausting weekend!
ReplyDeleteSo gorgeous, and so cool how this lovely looks the same on both sides of the Atlantic...I'm glad you got out and hope you are sleeping better now.
