Wonder

"Wonder, and its expression in poetry and the arts, are among the most important things which seem to distinguish men from other animals, and intelligent and sensitive people from morons." 

  - Alan Watts (1966)

    1. Thanks. I took it in my favorite park which is nearby. The land was never developed: it was owned by dept. store magnate Marshall Field before being acquired by the State. Thus, the trees (like this one) are huge and very old. I like how the size of the human in the picture emphasizes the immensity of the tree.
