"One's destination is never a place but rather a new way of looking at things." ~ Henry MillerFootwear for formal occasions found everywhere these days; the entire spectrum from flip-flops to the highest heels (how do they walk in those things), although I don't see any "sensible shoes" among the bunch.
"We all live under the same sky, but we don't all have the same horizon." ~ Konrad AdenauerReflections of summer trees and fluffy white clouds against the blue of the sky; but wait, is it really the blue of the sky or the blue of the cold water in the still pool? Is this any way to study the sky? Why, of course!
"Nature will bear the closest inspection. She invites us to lay our eye level with her smallest leaf, and take an insect view of its plain." ~ Henry David ThoreauBusy buzzing bee go about your business and pollinate the pumpkins please. And dear fruit flies stir memories of college days and hours (many, many, many hours) of red eyes or white eyes, short wings or long wings, bristled abdomens or smooth; of crossings and larvae and pupae and counting and counting and counting (endless counting), all in the name of Genetics. You are much better suited for this environment.

gorgeous macro shot.
gorgeous takes on the theme!!
I love the photo of all the flip flops, oh how times have changed!
Wow what a superb selection! Have a great weekend
What a great (and varied) collection of shots for this week's theme.
The close-up of the bee is particularly stunning . . . I wish I could take close-ups like that!
Have a good weekend.
Great take on the PhotoHunt theme. Love the photo of the bee!
looks like flip flops are the winner in this photo. i remember last year someone wore them to the white house and caused a big stink. ouch on the really high ones. at first i thought this was a group of nuns and thought WHAT? ha ha
I LOVE these pictures!!! I know we should always look up, but as I get older, I have to keep looking down to save my own neck! Nice to know I can see things like this!
Was that a grad photo? I thought I recognized black graduation robes!
My photo hunt is up: http://bonggamom.blogspot.com/2011/05/photo-hunt-looking-down.html
Those high heels are scary! Mom would break her neck!!
That bee photo is amazing!!

I won't mention my age but they
wouldn't be no way we could of wore flip flop when I graduate from
High School.
I Believe both my boys had some type of
non dress shoes on when the got out of high school.
You must be a warmer climate then me. I
haven't even seen a bee this year.
Thank you for stop in earlier. Daisy
our healer was just abandoned here and was skinny, cold, and scared.
Coffee is on and have a peaceful
memorial day.
These are all wonderful shots. I love the perspective in the first shot and the reflection is great in the second.
great series of pictures. the reflection in the second shot is superb.
great shots! I especially like the last one. thought graduation ceremonies are formal, i wonder why somebody's wearing flipflops..happy photohunting!
I'd go for the flipflops in the first photo though it doesn't look really well with a toga :D
Lovely flower photo and the pond looks peaceful.
Happy weekend!
Very observant look downward! Your reflected sky is a great shot!
I never could decide what the best shoe to wear with a graduation gown might be. Flip flops seem so casual for it and stilettos seem to fancy.
In the first picture I first thought they were nuns, lol ! But then I had some doubts. Love the last picture it's just gorgeous !
They are all lovely viewpoints. The flower and bee are amazing :-)
Great shots! Love the bee in the flower.
What a great set of images on "looking down." Definitely a variety of footwear in the first image, and I like how the reflection has us "looking up by looking down."
I LOVE the bees eye view...amazing...
I took pictures of our town's graduation on Saturday and was shocked at how HIGH some of the heels were that the girls were wearing. I was also pleased that some chose flats.
All are great photos. The bee shot is awesome!
