Simplicity in the Grasses


 A blade of some type of grass...that for some
reason I am drawn to. There is nothing
particularly unique about this grass...I just like it :)
I have not edited the background in this at all.
I was shooting it with a pond as the background...and this is the way it turned out.
Some have asked about whether the quotes come first or the pictures...
99% of the time it is the picture first...for me.


The picture is my creative outlet... and I try to find a quote or poem that goes
along with what I'm feeling about the shot.


Make the most of yourself, for that is all there is of you.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

even the grasses
they make the most
of what they have
we can learn a lot
from nature
