delicate balance
Our meander through Huntington Gardens last week took us through a desert micro-climate. I'm so glad to have walked the arid paths, taking in the prickly fractals.

I found myself mesmerized by the cacti's form and its ability to pull me in, while at the same time pushing me away.
I love the inherent balance found in each plant and the unexpected delicacy of the spikes and spines. Another simple yet profound teaching from nature.



they're beautiful. and so intriguing.
