Absolutely! What about green education? How do we encourage the inquisitiveness and focus captured in this photograph? How do we SUSTAIN this? In addition to the emerging sustainable and renewable energies we need an educational curriculum for children to match it. The earlier the introduction the better. It is only fair.

Extending like a dragons tail over the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean, between the California shore and nowhere, is the rock bed known as Ennepah or Anacapa Island.

It's textbook, when you least expect it you'll find the most fortunate visual circumstance. She Wears A Garden On Her Head, the working title of this photograph, I literally walked into while on a Sunday garden Promenade. Today these photographs beckon for a few reasons - International Women's Day for one. Immediately, upon seeing the walking, performance art I was reminded of painter Frida

Bee conservation

This photograph was an experiment recorded in my garden in Buxheim. We grew a garden to encourage bumblebees, birds, and butterflies. I rather like the black and white, high key image, it leaves the color to the imagination while preserving the texture of the bees and sunflowers. If you want to promote bee culture in your garden, I suggest sunflowers, they just love it. It is difficult to
