See each of those little white dots. No not just the huge white ones but also the itty bitty little hidden ones in between? Well there are even more tinier ones hidden between those small ones that also demand counting. I got to do that yesterday with 8 little bacteria circles a plate on 20 different plates. (Science is nothing but repetition, I don't think we've found anything new since the 60's).There is another unpleasant experience one must fight against when working with bacteria. When it is your mission to get bacteria to grow and be fruitful you make special media chopped full of nutrients to do it but then suddenly your other more insidious mission is to keep everything else from growing on it to.
Like say a fungus:
Oh how I loathe sterile techniques sometimes, especially if you work in an old building when a good air supply is only thought to be a band from the 70's.
I've never seen a willow tree in bud before. It has a very fantastical feel as though the tree could spring to life and start talking. Though I imagine he'd just complain about how a strange man in yellow boots won't stop singing. Terry ol, derry ol in deed.
An early bud on a tree, funny how it has such a fall feel even though the bud is trying to grow and not die off.
What is the most mind bending thing you have to do at your job? Misery is known to prefer company so maybe sharing it will help to be rid of it all. Though then you wouldn't be miserable anymore so misery would want nothing to do with you and then it'd be alone again. So then you'd be miserable again and then misery would like you.
This is complicated. I may have to diagram it out.

You know all those pictures are of nature. Even the bacteria ones. Just different types of nature.
Sometimes listening to people complain can be mind numbing. Mostly listening to my boss is the most mind numbing activity.
Yucky fungus, but I do have to admit that it is interesting! I love your "pretty" shots - you took them just before the snow LOL
