Temple of Nature

This lovely image by Dierk Haasis is just as beautiful seen as a photographic print displayed in my home as it is on a computer monitor. Fine art at its finest, it was a birthday gift to me from the artist himself, whom I value for his friendship even more than for his art.

Look for him also at Imagekind.

May Photo Collection from Dierk Haasis

On the home page of Dierk Haasis's website, in the slide show he's arranged for May, I was delighted to see two old friends. Prints of the bumblebee in a wall cranny and of the harbour viewed at sunset each hang on my own walls, where I can and do enjoy them every day.

As always, there are scenes which are thought-provoking and images of sheer beauty succeeding one another in this slide show. The close-up of the purple flower is so lovely it makes you hold your breath to view it.

What the cottontails eat

The lawnmower misses most of the clover that's mixed in with the bermuda and other grasses and wildflowers that populate the front and back yards on my street.
