capturing beauty

I was driving through the mist-bound countryside wishing I had a camera to capture the scene. Photography is one way to distill a little of the essence of beauty, though it's still only a partial way of trying to take it in. Beauty is like fog wrapped around the trees. It ebbs and flows; you can't ever catch it, but sometimes you can, at least, catch something great within the view.
