Nuzzle ...

“Bless the beasts and the children ... give them love, let it shine all around them.”

            ~ “Bless the Beasts and the Children”

                                  ~ 1971

 I feel so blessed personally and as a photographer to have witnessed this tender, precious moment as this beautiful white-tailed deer doe nuzzles her sweet fawn on a mid-March evening when winter is about to segue into spring at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania.

Daisies After A Spring Rain ...

“Where innocent bright-eyed daisies are,

With blades of grass between,

Each daisy stands up like a star

Out of a sky of green.”

      ~ Christina Rossetti

        ~ 1830-1894                               

Raindrops linger on daisies, so beautiful and innocent, sweet and simple and the star of the show, on a late spring afternoon in early June when the sun has broken through after a rainfall at Trexler Nature Preserve, Schnecksville, Pennsylvania.

Red-Tailed Focus ...

“Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.”

               ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

                           ~ 1803-1882
