Rose

"A single rose can be my garden... a single friend, my world." -Leo Buscaglia 

Nature up Close

Nature is always an interesting subject matter; not knowing what you might come across can result in some interesting, unexpected photos . The vibrant green leaf caught my attention as a walked along a side street in Santa Barbara. The sun struck the leaf just right, which made it appear to glow and allowed the veins in the leaf to stand out. The bee was also captured when I was on a walk; this bee was flying around this colorful flower stopping and gathering pollen from each. I was able to catch the bee just as it landed and for a split second sat still.
