I believe that landing a lovely photograph is strikingly similar to getting to know the people around us. There is such spectacular beauty to be found if only we are willing to pause a moment and take a closer look. We constantly seek to be shown the wonders of the world, but they are already at our fingertips.
Take the smallest amount of time to notice the magic that is woven into each day that you live. Look for the beauty everywhere you go and in everyone you meet. Every shot you take may not be what you hoped for, but every now and then, your willingness to give a little extra effort will leave you absolutely awestruck.
Big hugs to all. Jo

What an absolutely glorious photo. Out of curiosity, what is the plant? I’ve only seen one other plant with those blue-tipped stamens, and I think they’re just wonderful.

Thank you! It’s a type of spirea. The funny thing is that I didn’t realize that they had blue stamens either until I started going through the photos. I love that you noticed the same thing that I did. ❤️
