The colors really draw me in too. I think it's fascinating that a two-dimensional photo can look three-dimensional!

It's my pleasure to share, always.

Then I had cataract surgery with correction yo 20/20 and everything changed. I never saw things the same. It was sad but then I’m a Gemini so I went off in different directions. Sometimes I miss it, but mostly I’m glad I got to play with it. And I love seeing what others are doing.

Did you notice the quasi-cauliflower one? I will be attempting to use my new macro lens on it.

Wish me luck!

Thanks for liking them all!

Well, these are pretty highly concentrated. The market itself is a bit more spread out, but I get your meaning!

The beauty is everywhere . . .
