Time to Smell the Flowers

Peter in the Briar Patch

Nestled beneath a blooming thicket on Cape Cod, this quiet moment captures a wild rabbit mid-pause, surrounded by the gentle chaos of summer growth. The soft sprays of white blossoms overhead contrast with the textured greens below, framing the rabbit as both subject and subtle surprise.

Cape Cod’s coastal charm often conjures thoughts of sea air and salt marshes, but here, the inland calm takes centre stage — a tender reminder of the region’s quieter rhythms. The rabbit, poised and watchful, seems to have wandered from the pages of a well-loved storybook into this scene of natural abundance.

There’s an intimacy to this photograph — a meeting between observer and observed, where time briefly slows. It invites viewers to remember the beauty found not in grand vistas, but in small, living moments at the forest’s edge.
