Nature’s Simple Beauty<\/h4>\n<\/p>\n

Nature’s simple beauty is refreshing after a wonderful, colorful, noisy holiday. My neighbors, organic gardeners, grow many things. While they harvested their onions last week, they left these for a few days so I could photograph them. I thank them!<\/p>\n

First of all, a relevant quote for this post:<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you will stay close to nature, to its simplicity, to the small things hardly noticeable, those things can unexpectedly become great and immeasurable.\u201d ~ Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
