See and realize
that this world
is not permanent.
Neither late nor early flowers
will remain.

a meditative journey 
I really love both!
Thanks!
Rather wistful in monochrome….
Interesting how this image created with morning light seems wistful when processed in black and white.
It is!
Delicate beauty, so ephemeral. Love the monochrome but colour too.
It seems that is more delicate beauty in wild flowers than in cultivated blossoms.
I like the lighting better in the black and white photo 🙂
Thank you…it’s great to hear that the beauty of the morning sun continues into b&w.
