If you look closely in the middle foreground of this image is a golfball. We found it close to this spot sometime ago. Now every time I find it again I move it again. While setting-up this shot I tossed the golfball in and it rolled under what looked like a leaf. Later after photographing I went to retrieve the golf ball and found the "leaf" to be the luna moth's silk case that appears in the moss image below. Out of all those millions of leaves the golfball rolled under the luna moth's purse. The golf ball is still somewhere on our land. The silk purse is here in my studio. Someday, I will find a sow's ear.
