Quiet and Still

After the Flowers, in the Rock Garden, Brooklyn Botanic

"Quiet and still, but constantly and vigorously expressing the dynamism of life."

This post and the chosen images were inspired by Julian Velasco's lovely words today (and work) at Brooklyn Botanic's Bonsai Museum. He is talking about Bonsai, but I am reminded of some quiet and still moments spent focusing in autumn on what remains of a season's growth and flowering. These pictures were taken last year in mid-November in the rock garden at Brooklyn Botanic.
