an insect view...


Nature will bear the closest inspection. She invites us to lay our eye level with her smallest leaf, and take an insect view of its plain.
~Henry David Thoreau

...amazingly detailed veins and cells of a leaf


...the soft contrasting colors of a pine cone

...the center of a rose



...brilliant sunshine through blades of grass

It is in these minute and miraculous details that we can see the intricate handiwork of the great Artisan. Let us take the time to look with the eyes of an insect and admire the glory of creation with hearts filled with awe and gratitude!
