It has been unseasonably warm here, meaning I have been enjoying some unexpected blooms in my garden! Today I photographed a sunflower, Swiss Giant Pansies, and hige morning glories. I discovered this little yellow sunflower in the greenhouse; its bright petals had a miniature, demure presence. I love little surprises like this, as they remind me to appreciate every day; each bloom feels like a moment in time, a little treasure to find in the everyday routine, a reminder that serenity often lies in the simplest of things. It’s moments like these that inspire me to spend more time in my garden just looking around and watching for signs of life and change. They say the early bird gets the worm, but the early gardener gets the best pictures of the day!
