Sunrise Buddha
Today we visited the Hsi Lai Temple to pray and enjoy their vegan lunch. While we were there I snapped off a few photos with my Nexus One phone. Surprisingly the one I took of the large Buddha head in the parking lot turned out really good. I imported the photo into Adobe Lightroom for some color correction and apply an aged treatment to it, then I brought it into Adobe Photoshop and had the idea of blending it with a sunrise photo I took from my run a few days ago.
Ladybugs
This week we cleaned out our backyard and setup our Summer room so we can enjoy our meals and relax outside in the beautiful Southern California weather. We also did a bit of gardening and released 1500 ladybugs throughout our garden and yard. Also known as ladybird beetles or lady beetles as they are considered to be a part of the beetle family, but in America they are most commonly known as ladybugs.

Aloe Flowers in April
One of our aloe succulent plants has grown to be very large and oversized over the years. Each year in the Spring, a huge stalk grows out which then branches off into a crown beautiful flowers. One that is very unique with several stages to create delicate textures and colors. Once they open up we get humming birds coming for the honey.

Joys of Gardening
What is it about gardening that makes us so happy and peaceful? My entire life I’ve always found spending time planting and caring for plants to be soothing for my soul. I can spend hours out in the sun, even in poor weather, but especially in the sun, tending to my garden and slowly watching it grow over time.
