Capture Light Moments of Nature with the Camera

The camera is perhaps the greatest personal invention of man.  It has greatly enlarged our vision of our world and beyond; it has expanded our consciousness, and  our unconscious being, as well. It is integrated with the vast cyber communication network, particularly with the smart-phone dubbed as "man's best friend" in our postmodern times.

Imagine yourself a stag deer with the herd;
deep inside you roars the primeval instinct
of procreation, primordial key to evolution;    
your species now at the brink of extinction.

Gulliver in Lillitput, the giant in a book,
friendly and revered by the little people;
Don Quixote, the dreamer and redeemer,
laughed at by the simpleton and fool

A penguin in the office cools the place
when crowded with paperwork;
it came all the way from the Antarctic
 to bring pleasance like the stork.

Cotton tree  or kapok, Ceiba pentandra
your mighty brace roots are telling:
your majestic height and large domain,
anyone beside friendly and abiding.

Iguana, fierce-looking, gruesome, yet tame;
could this be the reverse of evolution?
what then is Darwin's survival of the fittest? 
is it not aggression and competition?
read again his book, The Origin of Species.
the evolution by domestication.   

Anna in an insect garden in Bohol c.2013

To each kind of flower a butterfly, 
unique to its taste and color;
to a time of day it comes around, 
save a lass of its own favor.~
