The Small

Do not disdain the small. The promise of feast is within the moments.

The small gifts in each day — like this spot of sunlight on drapery fringe? I don’t want to miss a one!

I like viewing this best on the black background.

The lighting is really nice against the black - being confined to indoors is really showing your creativity. The colors are lovely.
