One Morning Exactly A Year Ago

The Morning of May 20, 2010(A repost from my main blog)

I was out one misty morning. It was cold, wet and humid. Though tired from the past day's flight, I wanted to start the day early. I had my special reason and there were plenty of things I'd like to frame with my camera.
.

I was busy as the shutter was, framing flowers here and there. What a refreshing way to start my day, focusing on beauty.

As I worked on my macro, I started to notice tiny creatures creeping quietly.

I wondered, "Have they realized how short their lives are?"

I was thankful to be counting years not days.... I began to feel my inmost celebrating life!

Ahh.. they, too, were in celebration.


Then came Mr. Lizard to pose for me.

 I talked to him a bit and told him  "It's my birthday."

Thank you, Father, for the gift of life.

"....I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full."

Flower Photo Collection (Hong Kong 2011)

One of the best things I enjoy when traveling is taking photos of flowers. Here's my collection during my recent trip to Hong Kong.

Flowers have spoken to me more than I can tell in written words.  

They are the hieroglyphics of angels, 

loved by all men for the beauty of their character, 

though few can decipher even fragments of their meaning.
