      yes, indeed. this project has been so great at making me really see my surroundings. these thistles are considered common roadside weeds here. and yet they are so stunning.

    Stunning. I was at the Hortus Botanicus in Amsterdam today and saw botanical postcards in their shop that reminded me of your photographs.

  • i just discovered your work and this blog,to me it’s an expression of poetry and yoga,finding that centrepoint or gaze amidst the chaos of life. I would love to reblog some of your images, just wasn’t sure how to!!! thanks so much.

      Hi Insiya,
      Feel free to reblog, I’d be honored. But please give credit.
      I think you can just drag the images to your desktop, and then upload them to your blog.
      I see you are on WordPress like I am. I us the “Upload/Insert” tabs under add a new post. The first little icon is “Add an Image”. Try that.
      Good luck,
      Mary Jo
