This is the city-wide compost "area" in Cedar Falls, IA. The materials that make up the compost are collected in the Fall and the "processed" compost is put outside for everyone to take what they will come the spring. There are approximately 15 lanes of compost and 2 huge mounds on either side. It's good that the city of Cedar Falls helps it's citizens be a little "green" every year. Photo by Paul Adams.

I found this small flower in one of the few gardens that are around the parking lot of a mall. People never stops to watch what is around them here, they care more about crossing the parking lot before a car does. It was nice to see that some of them were curious and took a minute to see this beautiful small flower when they saw me taking the picture. I love photography because it's a way of teaching people to pay more attention to their surroundings. Photo by Teresa Celio
