Emergence

Old growth versus new

youth versus experience

the next generation

Maunder minimum

Sun spots solar storms

soccer moms driving SUVs

global warming

Cloud dancing

Dancing on a cloud

makes you happy for a while

clouds are transient

Suiseki

A microcosm

shaped by wind, rain and time

immemorial

The fence

A fence may try

but nature will always win

you need a huge wall

Understated elegance

Creamy white petals

understated hints of color

sheer elegance

Ghostly apparition

Up from fallen leaves

a ghostly apparition

marks spring's arrival
