Blossoms

It’s amazing what a camera can do. Ambling home alongside the A22, the cars noisily whooshing and zooming by, I stop to look at the tiny little blossoms that are starting to show themselves and think, that will make nice blip. I pull my camera from my bag, open the aperture as wide as it will go and focus on the wavering blossoms, and magically the cars and their noise and all the frustrations of the day vanish. The act of looking, composing and focussing takes me away for a short while, then I return, put my camera away and walk on happy with my find.
