Jude and I went for a walk around our neighborhood yesterday and he took the opportunity to play around with the manual functions of our camera. The spring colors are really pretty right now, especially the trees outside our house. The temperature is still a little nippier than I would prefer in May, but at least the sun is out and it's light until just before 9pm. Finally, spring is here for real! :)
Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers today;
And give us not to think so far away
As the uncertain harvest; keep us here
All simply in the springing of the year.
Oh, give us pleasure in the orchard white,
Like nothing else by day, like ghosts by night;
And make us happy in the happy bees,
The swarm dilating round the perfect trees...
-"A Prayer in Spring", Robert Frost

How wonderful it must be. To be able to appreciate the simple wonders of mother nature. To be free from the soulless materialism of our birthplace.
