Although I have the pleasure of working for a business with a full nursery and garden center, I rarely take the time to get what my coworkers call “my horticultural therapy”.
Yesterday, I took some time just to see the fall colors. Here’s what I found:

An overload of work, combined with the sheer overwhelm of ‘letting things go’ during the overload, resulted in a paralysis of sorts.
Then spring temperatures arrived and the daylight lengthened – and a dear friend said “send me some pictures” when I told her I wanted to spend time in the garden.
She knew what she was doing. I required the prompt to recall that I have cameras for just that purpose – to take photos.
Here’s what’s happening in the garden, sans any human intervention for the past nine months.
Fall splendor in the Midwest. A diversity of colors and textures.
A sample of shots taken last summer. A reminder that the sun shines eventually. 🙂

Spring’s on its way, slowly but surely – but sometimes you just have to force the joy. 🙂
I had a photo session with these beauties yesterday. 🙂
