Stay alert when you are photowalking

 

When you are out and about as you walk through your home community, stay alert for the flowers that are easily missed during your outing. Some of the small flowers offer an opportunity to observe the beauty provided by nature. Watch for the color and the light of the moment. You do not even need to know the name of the flower.

Gorgeous photo. It's important to take a breather from our busy schedules and look at how beautiful the day, or our surroundings are. It gives us energy to go through the day. I think I'll have a walk myself too.

Thanks, Suzanne. I am not confident that this is a morning glory. Let's get another opinion.

One of the little things of nature that we sometimes overlook.  I will keep my eyes open for opportunities to shoot those wonderful flowers we can take for granted.
