Rebirth

This year, I had several "rebirths" in my garden.  This year's freebies are sunflowers, alysum, snapdragons, and stock.  Talk about getting your money's worth. 

Once again, I was compelled to snap photos of the sunflowers.  It truly amazes me to see a mandala in nature such as the one inside this sunflower.  I find myself staring and tracing the pattern.






Click to enlarge the picture below.  You can see hundreds of tiny flowers opening.






From my perspective, I can understand how mandala's were used as religious symbols throughout civilzation.

Great pics. I especially appreciated the pics of the Natural Bridge and the fish hatchery. Aren't you loving your new camera?
