There is beauty in the simplest things. As I strolled through the farmers market I marvelled at the wonderful color and texture of a carefully stacked group of red onions. The sharp, crisp, orange edges of straw flowers jumped out to the eye. The delicate, soft edges of the pansy orchid (picture on the left), also known as a Miltonia, contrasted with the deep red masking in the center of the flower. Buying a camera, ironically, has opened my eyes to the amazing beauty that surrounds us. Flowers by the side of the road; birds drifting through gentle updrafts; wildlife searching for food; people of all ages and types; and perhaps, best of all, a friendly smile on the people around you.
