Last summer, a large bee and I had an altercation in the kitchen. In short, it could not manage to exit out the window through which it had entered and so it now rests in a jar, frozen in time, quite beautiful, I think, if a little macabre. Off and on, I have tried photographing the creature but nothing clicked until yesterday when the sun shone “just right.” Flowers both real and artificial reflected on the surface of the jar. The bee’s wings glowed with iridescent light. Factoring in curvature and irregular thickness of the glass … well, it was a sight that made me grab my camera.
The biologist in me is kind of curious what will happen over time, but likely what will is happen is that later this spring I will bury the bee in a pot full of flowers or maybe under that big oak tree. We’ll see …

A small, powerful detail in a corner of the stained glass window, David’s Charge to Solomon, at Trinity Church in Copley Square. A little dark but I hope to work with the image over time. Meanwhile, learn more about Trinity Church, its history and architectural tours via this link. Have a good weekend. 😉

… I didn’t notice anything. I didn’t even take a peek at the plant. I took it for granted what must be in the pot.
It wasn’t until I descended the stairs with eyes wider open. That was when I noticed the bloom.
It had not been there yesterday of that I am sure because I remember glancing at the plant and wondering how much longer it would survive. I had looked but I hadn’t paid attention. I hadn’t even noticed the bud.
It was an inspiring sight to start off the day.
