When the familiar surprises
“Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.” — Henry Miller
I have a favourite walk that takes me round a cul de sac of gardeners — or perhaps people who hire gardeners. Either way, I get to enjoy the ever-changing exhibition of nature in their park-like yards. Today I noticed — probably for the first time — a (lily pilly?) hedge sending out some wonderful red leaves. With a macro lens on my camera, it looked truly lovely. Definitely a golden moment.

It is a photographic cliche, but raindrops on flowers and leaves really do improve a shot.
