depth of life

This week's "You Capture" assignment is depth of field. I'm kind of stuck on photographing the emerging spring, so bear with me.

I love the watercolor detail of these little blue flowers, in focus or unfocused.

And the way the light turns the viburnum buds in the background into little beads of pink.

The fern leaves unfurling into the distance.

And ajuga abstracted.

As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "it's not the length of life, but the depth of life."

Or depth of field. :)

Happy Thursday!
