Desert Botanical Gardens (2024.08.31)
I enjoyed an early morning walk around the Gardens with a friend


“Reclining Woman,” Fernando Botero





When I take the time to look, I find that the smallest details amaze and inspire.


This bee enjoyed the pollen from this vibrant purple flower for a few moments.
Just long enough for me to capture it.




I am continually amazed by the textures and the variety of forms seen in nature.




Some birds enjoyed a morning bath,
I struggle to snap a clear picture of birds, even when they remain still.

Don’t forget to stop in to see this beautiful display of creativity, love, and joy.


The artist created each leaf to represent an individual and the plants they know and placed them over a map of Phoenix.

I walked around the Mesa Arts Center (MAC) after a training event
