Vividly Wilting


The roses here are of a very small variety, most likely Aletha June Roses or Baby Betsy McCall Roses. Some believe that these roses can help develop a foundation of security, convey a sense of trust, and even heal the wounded child within. However they do not last long, blooming for a short while before beginning to wilt.

Blue Bowl


This stunning image was taken on Whistler Mountain, BC Canada in March 2012. In early morning, when the sun is rising on the other side of the mountain, the snow on the surrounding mountains reflect the light onto the face of the hill in the picture. This effect is most vivid on the bowl at the summit after a night of continuous snow.

Sinister Tree

This image was taken in Devon, England, in 2010. It depicts a murder of crows roosting in late fall, because in a large group they are better protected against predators such as the owl. Crows only roost in large numbers in fall and winter before dispersing during the breeding season.
