In honor of Earth Day 2012, I created this Facebook cover photo of some pansies sparkling with dew drops. I added a quote from the poet William Blake: "To see a world in a grain of sand, / And a heaven in a wild flower, / Hold infinity in the palm of your hand, / And eternity in an hour." I was very happy with how the macro focus on my camera worked to capture the droplets and velvety surface of the flowers.





This composite digital image by Will Murray ("Willscrlt") was completed at 2:17 PM on Sunday, 22 April 2012. The included close-up photo (HB P4150128) of pansy flowers was taken by Will Murray ("Willscrlt") at 10:16 AM on Sunday, 22 April 2012 at one of the flower planters in front of the CBRE Building at 555 Capital Mall, Sacramento, California, 95814.
