What’s Inside

You never know what’s really inside until you look. The exterior may lead you to visualize something totally different, based on only the exterior.

That conclusion may become permanent, and be very difficult to change, even with physical evidence before you. But looking too close may be just as misleading.

I never knew that Rose of Sharon seeds looked like baby squirrels curled up in their pods.

Until you take the time to look at things in context, from many different angles, your conclusions are not conclusions, they are unproven theories.

Soft winter afternoon sunlight gently highlights the twists and turns of growing things stripped of their leaf cover, washed in a natural sepia palette. I enjoyed capturing dried things in the garden, especially what’s inside seed pods when they break open in their own time.
