Posted by Craig (Vacaville, California, United States) on 26 March 2008 in Plants & Nature and Portfolio.
The message below is from our friend Behrooz of BSurprised in memory of Sir Arthur C Clarke who passed away yesterday:
I would like to dedicate a day, let's say the last day of this month March 31th, to his memory, so I decided to suggest a theme for the day.
** Clarke's Day ** Dare to dream, let your imagination run wild, show us that impossible is merely a word in the dictionary. Take an element from his dreams, or yours, and make a picture. It can simply be a sign with the number 2001 on it or a picture of a UFO, but I'm not suggesting anything. It's up to you, my friend.
In case you are interested, please copy this text to your photoblog to spread the word. Thank you

I really like the lush green colour in this and the little white flowers are a lovely contrast. A great series of shots Craig.

Really beautiful!

Amazing growth, those plants look like they are strongly growing towards the light in the canopy above.

Wonderful greens here. Well seen!

I cannot wait to see the flowers start to blanket the floor of the woods!
This is a lovely taste of what is to come as spring takes hold.

I really like the sense of lush fantastical mystery (does that make sense?). Wonderful, Craig!

Once again wonderful colour. The splashes of white on the green is terrific.
