It seems like finding a photo that reflects “simplicity” would be simple. Every topic I considered seemed to reflect complexity rather than simplicity. Part of my problems seemed to be confusing simplicity with uncomplicated. I came across some old barns in my files (more likely to happen than not with the large number that I’ve taken) and I was tempted to use one, but barns aren’t simple. Their construction is complex along with maintaining them. And farming doesn’t seem to be for the faint hearted.
I settled on this dew-dropped grass because it seems so simple. Oh wait, ours is getting long up in Michigan and our lawn guy e-mailed saying it is growing but he can’t get to it because of the covid-19 stay at home order. And we are stuck in Florida for now so can’t mow it ourselves.
Maybe I’ll just have a simple supper tonight but not post it. Even that would be simpler if Jim were cooking.
Anyway, I had a chuckle or two as I did this simple post for Lens-Artist Photo Challenge #91: Simplicity. A new challenge should be posted tomorrow. Maybe it will be “Complexity” – now that should be a simple one to do.
It is indeed difficult to find anything “simple” these days…of course some would say that since things are interconnected…nothing is simple. 🙂

Goats. Eat grass. We must keep our sense of humor! Love the lily pads, too.

And I understand that goats can be really work intensive to raise. Oh, where oh where is simplicity. Thanks for the smile.

There used to be a sewing pattern company called Simplicity. Not being handy with my needle I found them anything but.

Simplicity is still making patterns – lots of them. 🙂

And I probably still couldn’t make them.
