Shades

Taking photographs of flowers like this is almost like mindfulness in a way because I have to focus on what I am doing and forget about other things.  I have a book on mindfulness and it came with a CD for practising the techniques.  I tried it out when I still had both cats and the whole thing was a disaster because wouldn't leave me alone, they purred in my ears, sniffed my hair, walked over me and so on.  I put them out in the hall and they started to wail.  In the end I decided to stick to photography.
