Another principle to think about, @bleujay. Preference is may something we see and we are surrounded on daily basis, we chose to do because we like, but on other hand there are still some absolutes that exists without being dependent if we like it or not. One of the favorite quote of artists: Art must have a conscience - it should not fear the absolute.

It is amazing how difficult it was to imagine in autumn that few months later on the ground that covered with dry old leaves and grass a new life rights its way to sun, so little and fragile but the same time so strong. Beautiful shot :)

Wish you a nice weekend :)
