Small things




Its hard finding colour in the garden these days. All the glorious autumn leaves have dropped now, forming a rather squelchy mess. Even the weeds look brown and discouraged. But in the unaccustomed sunlight, I wandered around with my camera, and managed to find some real beauty. Just shows what you can find if you go slowly, rather than rushing around, thinking these's nothing there.




Perhaps we should all slow down. On http://www.mousenotebook.blogspot.com/ there's a very thought-provoking post on going slowly.

Thanks Mum! Don't think you have to worry about going too fast these days. Enjoy the sun!

Gilly said...

Well, Leonard, I was a sort of Gilly-of-all-trades! ;)

Leonard said...

Well that makes sense too, but I thought that maybe you were a school teacher or a teacher of some sort.
Best to you.
