Book Description
We’ve all seen red roses, blue irises, and yellow daffodils. But when we really look closely at a flower, whole new worlds of beauty and intricacy emerge. Using a unique process that far surpasses conventional macro photography, Robert Llewellyn shows us details that few of us have ever seen: the amazing architecture of stamens and pistils; the subtle shadings on a petal; the secret recesses of nectar tubes. Complementing Llewellyn’s stunning photographs are Teri Dunn Chace’s lyrical, illuminating essays. By highlighting the features that distinguish twenty-eight of the most common families of flowering plants, Chace gives us fascinating insights into the natural history of flowers, such as the relationship between pollinators and floral form and color. At the same time she gives us a deeper appreciation of why and how flowers have become so deeply embedded in human culture. Whether you’re a nature lover, a gardener, a photography buff, or someone who simply responds to the timeless beauty and variety of the floral world, Seeing Flowers will be a source of enduring delight.

Book Description
Time goes on like flowers in autumn, Enabling forgotten memories to come back. The earth revolves on its axis one more time. Then I smile, though I know not why. Flowing from author Jaime P. Sanchez’s newfound energy for writing poetry in a later stage of his life, Some Flowers Bloom in Autumn presents a collection of poetry intended to reach people of all ages—but particularly those struggling to find purpose in the latter part of their lives. Sanchez also speaks to those who are trying to seek the simple truths that are oftentimes ignored because they are controversial. Surprisingly candid and honest, these verses include passionate love poems and liberating descriptions of life with a difficult medical condition. Open-hearted and engaging, this collection of poetry considers the changes of later life and embodies the life experience of a man of our time.
