Beneath the Green Mossy Japanese Maple Butchart Gardens BC

In the heart of Butchart Gardens in Victoria, British Columbia, stands this mesmerizing Japanese Maple—an ancient sentinel of serenity, its limbs twisting and dancing as if to the rhythm of nature's quiet song.

"Peaceful Stream in the Leu Gardens"
By Scott Loring Davis, Fine Art Photography https://pixels.com/profiles/scottloringdavis
Spending a beautiful afternoon photographing Orlando Florida's spectacular Leu Gardens I was particularly intrigued with a small stream passing through the grounds of the park. PRINTS AILABLE https://pixels.com/featured/peaceful-stream-in-the-leu-gardens-scott-loring-davis.html

Back on the road home today but here’s my first lake butterfly. The Harvester (Feniseca tarquinius), the only carnivorous butterfly in North America.

Look what I found on my walk to the protests on Saturday!

This is an entry in the “Game of Shrooms Global Art Scavenger Hunt,” a cool initiative from artists working in different mediums who hide their art and those who find, can keep.

At the website you can see map pins of the locations where art is hidden. This year’s theme is fungi.

The artist is Sarah Suponski who works with stained glass and who I contacted at her Etsy shop to let her know I found it.

When you sleep around with your old pillow and find out that new pillow you spent all that money on wasn't all that and a bag of chips.

The #MastoPrompt for Monday 16 June 2025 is:

#pure

The poem or story can include the prompt word or be about the prompt word.

@ me, if you like, or just include the #MastoPrompt tag (to allow people to follow or filter their feeds), or keep your work to yourself - all the options are good as long as you're writing.

If you're including an image please do include alt-text if you’re able to.

"Martin" is a Central Coast strawberry harvester. "I've been working as a strawberry picker for 10 years. Right now we're harvesting piece rate which means I need to work very fast to harvest as many boxes as I can. A few extra boxes means extra money to feed my family." #WeFeedYou

Visited a park yesterday, took some pictures.

Been a while since I was able to do that. I don't think I went there all last summer, what with the health troubles and everything.

But it was nice. Hope I can go again soon.
