This afternoon I decided to wander around our meadow and see what I could find. Overhead, storm clouds rolled by, darkening the sky with forboding threats of rain. I want the rain but not when I'm out taking pictures! :D I found lots of subjects including some caterpillars, some beetles and bugs, and plenty of flowers too. But my pick of the day was an easy win, a tiny flax bud with blond grass seeds in a soft bokeh background. The seeds almost look like natural fireworks! :)

Gautama Buddha or Siddhārtha Gautama Buddha, also called Sakyamuni, was a sage from the ancient Shakya republic, on whose teachings Buddhism was founded. He is also referred to as "the Buddha" or simply as "Buddha." Wikipedia: Buddha
