Fun with Flowers

Evolving phases of petals, reproductive parts, stems and leaves, budding, blooming, dying and decaying invite creative and controlled focus and dof. Lotus are quite gestural, and like water lilies, responsive to light, opening wide for sun. Subtle color tonalities and intriguing details draw a closer look. The light yesterday, cloudy bright with occasional sunlight, was nice into the morning, and the breeze no worse than you'd expect (a cooling whiff was welcome now and then.)

I didn't mind seduction by divine beauty and blowsy brilliance.
