Catching Rainbows


And another thing that makes me happy, digitally capturing Isabel capturing Rainbows in her hand. This photo may look like a small hand just raised up in front of the lens, but the simple beauty of that one moment will live in my soul for a long time. I love that children will stretch to the limits of what is known and unknown and capture the presumed impossibilities of this universe. I love this particular small hand and all she grasps in a day, a hairbrush, mud, gems, insects and flowers, all of it so gorgoeus and sumptuous, my heart seems to burst from an overload in my joy breaker switch. Home, little hands, dusk and a sliver of a rainbow, such simple gifts.
