Default What Is Beauty?

There's beauty all around our paths,
if but our watchful eyes can trace it midst familiar things,
and through their lowly guise.

Hayward, I've been waiting for somebody to post some water lilies. The bloom is stunning and I love the pattern in the second.

To your question what is beauty? You only have to look at the photographs and read the lovely words and the question is answered. This is Beautiful work Hayward my friend.

Hayward, you bring beauty here with everyone of your photographs, and this is no exception. I always look for your posts, and have never been disappointed. Thank you.
