“Wildflowers blossomed through sand and gravel in Death Valley, California in the spring of 2010.
Meanwhile, we humans wilted in the 105 degree heat.
I had been snapping photos of the mountains in the distance, when I looked down and saw that my white flip-flops and tootsies had found a friend.
I realized that here in Death Valley I had fallen for a dead metaphor:
So busy looking in the distance that I almost missed what was right in front of me.

Had a photo and write-up published on this cool indie blog and just wanted to share it with you.
Have a beautiful weekend!
Love, Marla

I like the soft colours in this photo.
Yep, soft and subtle can go a long way.
