An Awesome View of Life

This photo was taken at Merritt Island Nature Center.  I took this photo and thought it might look better without the green leaf over the flower.  Unfortunately, when I tried to move the leaf out of the way one flower petal fell off.  I didn't take another photo. When I uploaded my vacation photos this is what I had.  Perfection just the way it was. I love the ant.  I love the pollen all over the leaf I tried to get rid of. Note to self:  don't try to stage nature photos.

  Pale pink perfection...

  Simply...   (fill in the blank) I will fill it in with "perfection".  

  Perfection...

    Mission Accomplished...   This grove of trees has been on my list of things to photograph since beginning this photo journal.  These trees line the driveway of the resort I am at in Wisconsin.  The photo I had envisioned would be taken late in the day with the light filtering through the trees - some light, some shadow.  The day started with freezing rain which turned to a hard steady rain.  When the sun finally came out I grabbed my camera and got exactly the photo I had in mind.
