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!

This is the white Queen Emma lily.  The Queen Emma lily holds a place of honor in Hawaiian horticulture because of its association with island royalty.  Queen Emma (wife of Kamehameha IV) promoted health care for her people by establishing the Queen's hospital.  She also planned and developed many beautiful gardens on their estates scattered throughout the Hawaiian islands.
