A rose-bud.

A rose-bud with all its potential is a very lovely thing to look and contemplate on. I took this picture in our garden.

The beauty of a 'jam fruit tree'.

The many interlacing branches of this tree form a lovely pattern. These are not random arrangements. These could be explained as formed from small units called 'fractals' made according to the instructions of the genetic code of each species. Plenty of birds visit this tree. I took this picture at Nawalapitiya.

Learning to live together

Someone once made a remark 'Children are little savages. They need to be civilized'. Getting children to 'learn to live together' is one of the most important parts of a child's education. I took this picture of apparent harmony among children.

When Grandpa is away ...

I left my grandson in the beleif that he will be safe in the pram. This is what I saw when I returned. NEVER UNDERESTIMATE your grandsons abilities to get into trouble.
