Endnotes
- A bee witnesses the lavender and salvia images.
- The obvious stomata on the basil remind us that it is a living organism.
- I have loved roses since childhood. My first summer job was the exacting trimming of the numerous rose plants that surrounded our parish church: St. Rose of Lima in Layton, Utah.
- I overexposed the sky to accurately expose the pansy and to get the lightbox effect.
- I enjoy images in which sharp focus is at a premium. I look intently at a focused element and then let my mind wander around without moving my eyes. Afterwards, I do move my eyes but relax into the blurriness to experience the colors, contrasts, and shapes.
