Evening Words, Wisdom and Beauty
The sky is the daily bread of the eyes.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Study nature, love nature, stay close to nature. It will never fail you.
Frank Lloyd Wright
There is a way that nature speaks, that land speaks. Most of the time we are simply not patient enough, quiet enough, to pay attention to the story.
Linda Hogan
It is a wholesome and necessary thing for us to turn again to the earth and in the contemplation of her beauties to know of wonder and humility.
Rachel Carson

Gorgeous photos! I especially love your flowers. Those little blue flowers are so delicate and pretty.
In response to your post on Nature and the quote by Rachel Carson :
Industrial Society Destroys Mind and Environment.
Industrial Society is destroying necessary things [Animals, Trees, Air, Water and Land] for making unnecessary things [consumer goods].
"Growth Rate" - "Economy Rate" - "GDP"
These are figures of "Ecocide".
These are figures of "crimes against Nature".
These are figures of "destruction of Ecosystems".
These are figures of "Insanity, Abnormality and Criminality".
The link between Mind and Social / Environmental-Issues.
The fast-paced, consumerist lifestyle of Industrial Society is causing exponential rise in psychological problems besides destroying the environment. All issues are interlinked. Our Minds cannot be peaceful when attention-spans are down to nanoseconds, microseconds and milliseconds. Our Minds cannot be peaceful if we destroy Nature [Animals, Trees, Air, Water and Land].
Chief Seattle of the Indian Tribe had warned the destroyers of ecosystems way back in 1854 :
Only after the last tree has been cut down,
Only after the last river has been poisoned,
Only after the last fish has been caught,
Only then will you realize that you cannot eat money.

Very pretty. I can almost smell the lilacs.
Outstanding photos, Sylvia. You are rapidly becoming a master photographer.
When I saw the Lilacs I thought, "I can almost smell them" and then when I read the comments I discovered that I was not alone. Robin Andrea had the same thought.
