the magnificence of nature in my hands















how does it feel to hold the magnificence of nature in your hands? i felt it, but words failed to describe how it was. from this pic, i sure was happy.

this was taken during a not-so recent mountain trek when i held the flowers of the lauan (Shorea sp.), one of the endemic hardwood species (and threatened to disappear) in the philippines. the tree flowers only every 12 years or so, depending on the climate, and we were in the right time to capture the moment! the flowers will be used to sprout seeds for reforestation projects in the mountain area that i went to.

sometimes moments like this make me think about where i am in this world, how i am just a strand in this web of life. wish i was a bird.
