Penning Photography Daily

This ant is doing it’s part to keep the growth cycle going, both it’s own and that of the flower it’s digging on.

I just happened to see it roaming and rooting through the flower’s golden stamen, looking for it’s own sustenance and picking up pollen to carry on to another flower. The constant work, unceasing effort is what fascinates me about ants. Another of Nature’s marvels.

Me, I have to rest in order to renew and start fresh.

For example, I seem to be in a lull for taking daily photographs. It happens from time to time. I get a bit overworked, or under nourished (in the inner creative spirit way), and need to just rest a bit, or concentrate on something else. This pause never lasts long. There’s a constant stream of interest flooding my eyes everyday. Something will speak to me and I’ll have to pay attention to it, grab my camera and try to capture a bit of what struck me.

In the mean time, I’ve got tens of thousands of photos in my archives, like this one from two years ago, that are just waiting for me to take the time to revisit and rediscover the special something that reached out and grabbed my attention.

Lucky me.
