Just living is not enough... One must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower.

There is something about the photo above that I find especially appealing.  What is the view off the side deck?  I imagine a sandy beach.  This is a artist's studio - a place to which one might retreat to create.  With a fireplace!  Some people are s-o-o-o- lucky!  (If the gardens are an indication of her talent, I will have to humbly add that she has earned it.)

Some people are making such thorough preparation for rainy days that they aren't enjoying today's sunshine.

I never seem to have a camera along when I see sights like the one above.  I don't have (or want) a cellphone - but I can certainly see the beauty of having a convenient camera with you wherever you go.  Of course, having a knack for recognising and framing the beauties of nature also helps.

The art of art, the glory of expression and the sunshine of the light of letters, is simplicity.

- Walt Whitman
