My Blog primarily consists of close-up nature photos (that I've taken locally) combined with original holistic-truth oriented prose and/or poetry involving mindfulness/awareness. I love nature and I love understanding the whole (not merely the parts and the details). I'm a retired teacher of the multiply handicapped.
I have a number of interesting hobbies, such as fossil collecting, sport-kite flying, 3D and 2D close-up photography, holography, and pets. Most of all, I am into holistic self-awareness, spontaneous insight, unconventional observation/direct perception, mindfulness, meditation, world peace, non-fragmentation, population control, vegetarianism, and green energy.

Stay mindful, understanding, and caring!...
Tom,
Your macro photos really help me appreciate the hidden wonders of small things. I feel guilty that I unknowingly trample unseen beings every step I take on this earth. I probably even kill little things living in my hair follicles. But if I ever come across that last one you’ve shared today, I just might not take pity in my trampling!!
How fun Tom – Halloween is such a fun time in the Midwest , coming alongside the harvest decor and the end of Summer … that was a well-fed ant you found there. But he posed nice and didn’t get all antsy at all!
Yes, the park, Perry Farms, has this Halloween thing every year; it’s a lot of fun and really is full of very creative themes.
The ant looks well-fed because, at this park, i feed him (and his friends) a lot of peanuts… peanut crumbs actually. 🙂

I’m Sue. Sylvia is the poet and my niece. 🙂
Are you sure?

Well, of course I meant the micro version.😉
