My Photographer's Eye

Vignette #17: Change is Inevitable 
I am heading out back to complete some errand - water the plants or relieve the dogs, probably. But I stop when I see this furry yellow fella.  It's the first caterpillar of the season. My photographer's eye tells me to stop. Capture the texture.  And the color, so vibrant against the African daisies in our front yard. Think about the metamorphosis which caterpillars signify. Change will come. It is inevitable. And so often . . . it is good.

    I think it's interesting how much bigger the photograph makes it seem than it would be in real life. If that makes sense.

    For some reason I am afraid of those ugly caterpillars. Today you made me think of them as what a beauty it will become.
