the beauty of time

January 6, 2014 by Cynthia

I have been photographing this African Violet since at least 2010. This past year, the plant grew spectacularly well. Mostly because I tucked it into a corner and let it be. Now at the start of this first full week of 2014, I photograph the plant again. It is an overcast day which is all the inspiration needed to pull out flashlights and let the artificial light play upon iridescent petals and leaves.

They’re lovely little flowers. I like the detail on the last one 🙂

  Thank you. I’ll be curious to see how many more years I can photograph it. 😉
