Field of Blue

Posted by Russ Devan (New Hanover, United States) on 6 May 2009 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

This field of grape hyacinth blooms for about one week each spring and then it's gone for another year. I caught it just in time.

"The Master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he is always doing both."
