One Less Raindrop on the Peony

Photographer and poet Carole Daoust focusses on the world of small back gardens, parks and alleyways in Verdun, a suburb of Montreal, Quebec. Flowers, birds, small animals and, most of all, insects, catch her eye. Like a modern-day Issa, Daoust observes the lives of these tiny creatures with a mixture of compassion and admiration.
