Hello everyone! Thank you so much for stopping by! The video I have chosen for this post is relaxing saxophone music by Jacob Merrill. The video is just 3 minutes in length. Enjoy!
The photos I am sharing today are ones that I took on my nature park walk. I have no idea what they are called, but I love the colours and patterns! I took these photos inside the greenhouse at the nature park. You just need to click on the images to see a larger view.

Deletethe saxophone's another instrument i would love to learn how to play. i wonder if it's very difficult =) interesting plants. they look like they could almost be tropical. like something from the amazon, maybe! :D
ReplyDeleteHi Sean, I think you are right about the plants! It was kind of a rainforest feeling in the greenhouse...hot and humid, which is why these plants thrive so well I guess. :)
DeleteThe Leaves and patterns are lovely , the music is relaxing as ever. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteI completely agree with Aristotle's quote, and we can see it in the photos of the leaves you've posted :)

Lies, thanks so much, so glad you enjoyed the music and my photos. :)
DeleteThese leaves are beautiful!! The first one may be a prayer plant, I used to grow them. At the end of the day, the leaves all stood up like they were praying. Then with the dawn, they would come back down.
ReplyDeleteHi Ginny, what a lovely name! Thanks so much for sharing this.
DeleteLovely tropical plants Linda! That must have been a wonderful indoor experience.
ReplyDeleteI really liked the saxophone music too! And learned two things today thanks to you: 1. Jacob Merrill 2. Soprano saxophones

Merci infiniment, Laurence!
DeleteI agree that the first one looks like a prayer plant. The last one is quite common, too but the name isn't coming to me right now. The saxophone was my mom's favorite instrument to listen to. I played clarinet and they aren't too much different - - but we didn't have the money for another instrument.
ReplyDeleteHi Lynda, thank you so much for your comment.
