A Fountain of Clouds

Every now and then our brave photographer comes across a truly amazing sight, and today we are blessed by the birth of a rainbow. Rainbow Fountain Full of Clouds

Our graceful Rainbow plays for a moment in the Italian Garden Fountain. As you can see, Rainbow is already vanishing back into its transparent spirit home. Fortunately, our brave photographer arrived just in time! A fall afternoon in the Italian Garden

A Fountain Full of Fractals

Image
Fractals! They’re those never-ending patterns that “display self-similarity…in all scales”. In mathematics, a self-similar object is exactly or approximately similar to a part of itself.* Is there no rest for the self-centered? Do you want to know how to be a fractal? Just do the same stupid thing over and over! And this rainbow we are talking about. There is the very same self-similar rainbow in each tiny droplet and packet of drops and fountain of drops! And there you have the essence of it; the soul of it if you will. The rainbow, in fact,  is immortal. Do you remember how to discover a rainbow? First locate body of water (a dew drop will do). Position yourself between the drop and the sun, and sooner or later there it will be. Of course it’s been there all along. A soul waiting for the right circumstances.

Walking Through the Blessings caught in Blessing Fountain

Sink down inside the hidden places, wait next to the heart of the matter, sense the sharded rainbow nesting there

Afterglow of Summer

Outsized, outgunned, outmaneuvered all around Out of luck, out of gas, inside out and upside down Uprooted, unsettled, unintended consequences Lone wolf, lady luck, leans into the circumstances Gotta run, gotta, go, gotta take it nice and slow. Season’s changing, rearranging, Summer time in the afterglow. Wedding party and lost fisherman in Conservancy Garden (slanted to the right)
