A day that could easily have been described as “a glass half-empty” suddenly felt “half-full” as I opened my mail to discover the 2009 issue of the Rockhurst Review containing one of my photos, Dandelion.  The picture is simply that of a dandelion its golden flower gone to white tufted seed.  The seeds are blown away leaving a half-moon of whiteness with a circle of dark brown seeds in the center.  I remember taking that picture last summer, I think, in a strawberry field.  The strawberries were the focus of my camera that day, but it was the happenstance shot of a dandelion that brought me joy today.  Go figure. 😉
