” All the wordl’s a stage and one man in his time plays many parts”, (or my take on that line), is one that I have loved and held close during my entire life. Such true words.

A beautiful shot with exquisite DOF and colours, Kala.

I’m one of the few people who loves crabapple trees. I like these gold tones in the background.

Gorgeous, Kala!

PS: I sort of bought myself a little present this weekend: a new camera! I have pretty much *no idea* what to do with it, so am doing a lot of reading, but one of the first things I tried was…you guessed it: close-ups of flowers.

So I am certainly not going to be giving you any sort of run for your money any time soon…but wanted you to know that you have kind of inspired me.

I’ve always liked crabapples but have I told you how much more beautiful you’ve made them appear than I ever imagine/see? Next spring, I’m looking at them in an entirely different way!
