sometimes you just don't get it/but then again you do

While I was in The Springs, NY last weekend I was lucky enough to pay a visit to this place - the home of a painter and gardener. And as we sat and chatted with him I was just mesmerized by this beautiful little still life sitting before me. I asked if I could take a picture of it and as I shot I knew I wasn't getting it - I wasn't capturing the something that I was feeling. I still like the image but I am a little frustrated as well. But some things are meant to be experienced and not photographed. And my experience here has had an impact. I am seeing parts of the world through changed eyes.
