A potpourri of photography and words about Nature, social issues, and anything else that crosses my path during the day.

Thursday Morning
Some sights seen on my morning stroll.
Bittersweet berry wreath on Division St.
Trinity Church's annual "Pumpkin Patch".
Autumnal display on a front stoop on Thomas St.
An ivied wall on Cliff Ave. Common Ivy is an evergreen, but Boston Ivy (actually in the Grape family rather than the Ivy family) is deciduous and changes color in the Fall. It makes a great contrast, doesn't it?
Hi there, I saw your comment at Megan's blog (and other places) and thought I'd check you out. I really like your photographs and like what I see here. If you don't mind, I'm going to tag along! thanks! Patrick Tillett, Extremely Overdue
There was something formless and perfect before the universe was born. It is serene. Empty. Solitary. Unchanging. Infinite. Eternally present. It is the mother of the universe. For lack of a better name, I call it the Tao.
It flows through all things, inside and outside, and returns to the origin of all things.
The Tao is great. The universe is great. Earth is great. Man is great. These are the four great powers.
Man follows the earth. Earth follows the universe. The universe follows the Tao. The Tao follows only itself.
Tao Te Ching, Chapter 25 Translation by Stephen Mitchell
The wreath photo is gorgeous!
