Microphilia
Sometimes focusing on the big picture makes us blind to the myriad tiny worlds each contains: the macro obscures the micro. A Monet painting of his home garden at Giverny is a wonder to behold. But step in closer and the daubs of paint take on a life of their own. A single flower or water lily is a microcosmos of swirling colours; the bark on a tree reveals a rugged terrain of textures. The same is true in nature, whether in your own garden, a favourite park, or pristine wilderness area, endless revelations of miniature delights await you.
