… something soft and dreamy and a bit fantastic but, at the moment, the words are not fully forming in my head. A good thing since I have a very concrete project to complete involving hard numbers and rigid forms. But if you have a poem to share, please do. 😉

hibiscus petals in the sun

A few blossoms found by the seashore this weekend. They suddenly glowed in a shaft of afternoon light.
One of those unexpected sights that made many a person pause, and one older gentleman even exclaimed, “What a glorious day it has turned out to be.”

I was photographing shells on black paper when I decided to see what would happen if I tore apart a nearby blossom and photographed the petals on the paper instead.

I was curious how the Bear Sunflower would look in black and white.
View more images in the pale as well as in color via this temporary sunflower gallery. Enjoy!

Last night, a very young friend gave me a gift. A long-stemmed sunflower with a very bear-y name. I told her that I was going to photograph it. “Why?” she asked, as little friends of that age ask quite often. “Why are you going to photograph it?” I told her so that I could share the beauty of her gift with others. And so here it is.
I took its picture throughout the day, as the sun shone through different windows, striking the many petals in many different ways.
It even seemed to bow its head as I moved it around the room as if to say, “Oh, yes, please do put me into the sun’s warm rays.”
At last I put it back upon its perch on a table covered with fellow plants. There it sits awaiting a new day of light to fall upon its form. Perhaps I’ll take its picture yet again.

There’s a wooded path near my house that takes about five minutes to walk in one direction. It is amazing what’s to be found in such a short length.
