The purpose of this page is to challenge me to open my eyes and truly see the world which surrounds me. So often we trudge though our daily routine, too busy or preoccupied to notice the little miracles happening all around us. I hope to capture, through the lens of a camera, glimpses of my sometimes mundane but glorious little world. I will attempt to post one snapshot each day to share with you. Enjoy!

August 23, 2011




I had lunch at a little grille in downtown Kailua with my friend Eileen this afternoon.  Just outside the door of the restaurant were these beautifully potted flowering shrubs.   The 1-inch deep tubular blooms of the Red Firecracker Fern drape in large clusters from pine needle like foliage.  This particular variety of the long lasting perennial happens to be a favorite of hummingbirds and butterflies.
