Nature Photography

Photo by Bruce Leander

Tonight I had the honor of being invited to an exclusive look at photos taken by successful bio technology executive, Bruce Leander, at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center.  I invited my friend Michelle Ewalt (fabulous business/executive coach) to join me, and we both had a really nice time and met some interesting people.  Bruce retired from a full time career in the business/bio tech world a few years ago.

We had Bruce out to the Austin Technology Incubator a while back to talk to our companies about building a great corporate culture.  He has a strong reputation for focusing on company culture thereby making it a critical part of the success of the companies he was involved in.  I wonder if flowers have their own little growing cultures…well we do know that if they are nourished properly and given the right amount of attention, they thrive better than those who aren’t given the same amount of resources and attention.

My good friend Sandy Blanchard, whose photos I have used on several occasions to accentuate my blog posts, also takes fabulous pictures of nature and has some fantastic pictures of flowers.  Maybe one day, she’ll also be able to exhibit her photography in public.

At any rate, it’s always nice to see someone share their passion with the world.  I’m working on sharing one of my passions –  singing – with the world soon…even if it’s only online and not in person.  I have almost finished recording one song, from the 70s I think, with my voice teacher.  It’s not a completely professional recording but just as in the tech world, sometimes the best end products start out with a beautiful hack. 🙂
