I also shot with my SX-70 while I was at the gardens. It was Polaroid week that week.

Camera: Polaroid SX-70 Sonar using Polaroid SX-70 Blend film

Song of the day: "The Turn" by M.I.A.

Poem of the day:
"I FOUND a yellow flower in the grass,
A tiny flower with petals like a bell,
And yet, methought, more than a flower it was,—
More like a miracle.

Above, the sky was clear, save where at times
Soft-tinted fleeces drifted dreamily,
Bearing a benison to sunny climes
From altars of the sea.

In vestments green the pines about me gleamed
Like priests that tend the sacrificial fire;
And the faint-lowing cattle almost seemed
Some far intoning choir.

It was a place and an occasion meet
For some high, solemn wonder to befall;
And, when I saw the flower at my feet,
I understood it all."
- John Hall Ingham, "A Summer Sanctuary"
