I come to the garden alone…

… while the dew is still on the roses.

Some of you may not remember the old gospel song I just tried to remind you of.  Today’s Developing Your Eye photo assignment was “Bliss”.  I hate to be trite and predictable, but there’s just nothing that substitutes for some quiet time in a lovely garden at the cool of the day, either first thing or as the sun is setting.  (Did you know that the French word for “setting” as in “setting of the sun” is the same word as they use for “going to sleep”?  What a lovely image!)  What makes this garden really nice is that it’s my wife’s doing.  She’s the designer and “we have a guy” to do the heavy lifting.  I just get to enjoy it.
