Enjoy this life. It would be a shame if we looked forward to the next, only to find we forgot the one before.

"Bee"ing Fruitfull

Image

Taken in British Columbia, Canada. I don't have much of a zoom feature so I had to stay still by the flowers for quite a while to get a good shot.

This was taken with a small digital camera, just on a whim-- I liked the juxtaposition. I haven't done anything but crop it slightly.

Out of the Fog
It's a photo of medieval Spiski castle (one of the biggest castles in Central Europe). I took it during vacation in Slovakia.
