I went for a walk this morning not thinking I would see anything too striking - the sun was not too bright, and spring has not sprung yet.  But I found this curly plant, and I like the little lens reflection artifact that appeared in the picture beneath it, too.

I also saw these beautiful ripples on the surface of the brook nearby.

This is the bottom of a glass pan in which I had just baked a yummy vegan cinnamon crumble, and as it sat on the counter waiting to be washed I noticed the wonderful plethora of tiny shapes the water made under it on the counter and in it.  I took the gray picture with a flash. The shapes reminded me of looking through a microscope at single celled creatures. Baking - rewarding for the observant and the hungry!
