Garden of Peace and Meditation

recent 35mm shots / Lake Shrine

 'You are a wildflower, a beauty unsurpassed.'

-Paramahansa Yogananda

I recently got some 35mm film rolls developed and came upon a few stellar shots (upon many missed shots!) from our family morning trip out to Lake Shrine in the Pacific Palisades to celebrate Elijah's birthday. Have you heard of Paramahansa Yogananda and his centers for self-realization? Have you been to one before dear reader? 

I highly, highly recommend a walk around Lake Shrine. 

Let the peacefulness and flowers wash over you. 

Always.

Tropical Heat

I've been super inspired by tropicals lately. I did not make the arrangement above but I do like it very much. Something about the tropically wild, huh?

(sorry I can't remember where I got this pic. I'd like to give credit where credit is due)
