Blooming Iris close up at Long Hill Garden in Beverly, MA.
These small purple flowers are loaded with loops, hoops, and curlicues, which I never noticed until I saw them after shooting in macro. Sometimes we forget to look for the small details in life—they are usually the most interesting! Taken with a fuji FinePix A500.

This is a poem I wrote for my son shortly after his demise. The foundation for his headstone had been poured as we waited the time for his youngest brother to build his headstone with the stones so familiar to his now lifeless hands. A headstone created from one of the many stones he handled throughout his life. As you can see, a wooden cross awaits the mason’s hammer and chisel. Till he is ready to build, this wooden cross held this poem of love for the caretakers’ purpose that was so gracious and kind to respect my wishes. Today is my son’s birthday / Please don’t take his memorial away / I thank you for the consideration you’ve shown / And this little piece of land, he can call his own / His life was somewhat lacking in some things / But he still knew how to cause your heart to sing / It seemed there was nothing you could do to him, / That he wouldn’t soon forgive / He valued the life, which God had given him to live / Though he no longer lives and feels the same things we do / His love is just as real and his memories are just as true / I know you may wonder why I spend so much time here / Beneath this clay, lye’s a most precious son, so dear / When I no longer am able to visit his grave / And beneath this same soil my body shall lay / There will hardly be visitors, to come here anymore / So, please give your indulgence as you have before / By this good deed being granted / May God bless every good seed, you have planted. I Love You My Precious Son / Love Always and Forever, Mother Sons are the heritage of the Lord; / Children are a reward from Him. / Psalms 127:3-5 Written and Composed By: / Nancy Bailey-Whitmore-Shields / Copyright 2005-2009
Best viewed large….These are blooms from the lovely “jacaranda tree’...done in Lucis…spring blooms..
This Lilac was protected by it’s heart shaped leaves. There is an old hymn, “Rock of ages, cleft for me, let me hide my self in thee”. Our lives are hidden in Christ, where NO one can touch us! Safe! For eternity…. Can you fathom that wonderful news? He did it all for us, so we are safe in Him… no matter what! Hallelujah, what a Savior!! / /
