The place is such a feast for the eyes, I couldn’t stop my iPhone from snapping the photos in this post. The variety and grandeur of beauty housed in this small space is astounding!

You can tell by the multitude of photos that we had an awesome time! The orchids were amazing– so many different varieties, and so many!
So now I am furthering my ongoing goal of appreciating such a continuous, overflowing abundance of random good.
Here are my most recent black and white photos, taken during our trip to Texas, and mine to Vermont. I love all the textures and shapes, and the contrast between light and shadow that are highlighted in black and white photographs.
