"Our Patio Garden"

                                        
 This summer our garden has been a great source of inspiration for me.  It is ever changing with each new day bringing new plants blooming and others fading away.  Also, because of changes in the weather and time of day, the light seems to showcase differing aspects.  My joy is in interpreting these differences.
