Queen Anne's Lace/weed

I love this little delicacy - but to many it is a weed to spray and be rid of. A lot of life is like that. "One man's trash....."

It was a pretty cool day for me. I had to go to my most favorite family internist today. He has been our family doc for quite a number of years. Knows my history because as a young man he treated my folks. So he knows me well. I took him a matted and framed shot of mine today to thank him for "tinkering" with my drugs to keep me moving - and I've given him a run for his money at times. It was a heartfelt thank you. Without him I could not be doing what I am doing today.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, isn't it? Sometimes I wonder why some flowers are categorized as a weed... This is definitely a beautiful "weed"!

It may be a seed, but I love it's delicate look. Nice capture...

Beautiful Cathy...very sweet of you to give him a framed photo....I think I should do that sometimes but then doubt myself and don't thinking they don't want it. Maybe I'll try it once.
