The luscious video clip below should help get your week off to a vibrant start.
Speaking at a TedTalk in March, renown filmmaker Louis Schwartzberg offered a “bit of nectar” from his movie, “Wings Of Life.”
Thanks to my friends at the International Butterfly Breeders’ Association for calling it to my attention.
Using high-res, slo-mo, close-up, time-lapse cinematography, Schwartzberg’s footage is downright sensuous, getting up close with bats, butterflies, bees and the flowers they pollinate while providing an intimate view of  “a love story that feeds the planet.”
Says the award-winning cinematographer:

“Beauty and seduction, I believe, is nature’s tool for survival, because we will protect what we fall in love with.”

Take a look at the video and see if you don’t agree.[ted id=1140]
