Every May in my little woods a huge patch of Wild Geraniums come into bloom. There is an explosion of lavender-pink in contrast to the darker shading of green and tree bark. I visit this area often during this time of year. I find the plants are always moving, dancing with the wind and when I take photos I get some interesting effects. With this flower patch some areas of my photo come into focus while the background blurs due to all the movement. I never get bored taking pictures of these blooms and never know what I will get. These plants grow in North America in wet or moist woodlands and meadows. There are some pharmaceutical uses and it has also been used by Native Americans. One of the most common medical uses is for stomach ailments and diarrhea. For me this little piece of the earth provides a boost to my spirit. I find my soul moving and swaying with them each time I stop by for a visit.
