Photography has pretty much changed my life, in that, I look at every little thing differently now. I get so much pleasure being outdoors and finding new things to photograph. It gives me a tickle inside! I love the birds and flowers and all of nature so much. Sharing these treasures with all of you is very much a pleasure too. I hope you enjoy my photos as much as I enjoy taking them! This has been one of the most fun things I ever done... joining this community, it's given me more courage and confidence to explore what I really love to do... A BIG HUGE THANKS to all my friends here!!!!!!

 "Photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing and when they have vanished  there is no contrivance on earth which can make them come back again."
 Sometimes when we are generous in small, barely detectable ways it can change someone else's life forever...

Ahhhhhhh....Big Mahalo's to you Amkemi-san! What a great idea here and so true! I kinda wish they would have spaced them out a little, but kids will be kids. This image really pulls it together for me, two from the same plant...Thanks so much for your image and sentiments, you are too kind....Now off to Favs with this one~ Aloha~

I love your use of symbolism and how Dave picked up on that. "Two from the same plant". Sigh...That's beautiful... Your image is more eloquent than anything I could ever say. My very best to you, Dave, and to you too, Akemi. You're a wonderful friend. This is such a beautiful gesture. -M :^)
