Sam, you are welcome to invest in my new time machine project.  I take any investment of $100,000 or more, and offer no guarantees. 

If I can't get it to work and reverse my aging then at least I will be comfortable in my older years managing the investment funds.......

Here's a few I took with my macro lens this summer.  No color correction or post enhancement done.

Hi,

I have to say that I do like photographing flowers and thought I would share a shot from my phone of a rose in the garden, close up. I like the abstract nature of the macro shot. As with Jay's there is no post processing of colour.

Regards,

Mauseus

Back in November of last year my dad suddenly passed away.  Just before he died I began taking sitar lessons and shortly after he passed bought my own hand made Ravi Shankar style sitar.  Then in July my maternal grandfather who raised me died and that was followed in September by my paternal grandmother passing at age 100.  It's been a crazy year.  I  just returned from Italy where we buried  my grandmother along with my fathers ashes.  What's got me through all of this is my faith, my wife and my love of music.  The sitar lessons have been an escape that I look forward to each week.  These lessons inspired a series of photos I call "The Inner Light" (after the Beatles song by George Harrison).  All the photos are taken at my guru Chris Hale's house and garden.  The surroundings are conducive to creativity and  inner peace.  I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as I enjoy being there...

Are those lily beetles, Jay? They're attractive but a right pain.

I believe so, they're on Asiatic lilies.
