This flower looked drooping dead this morning. Four petals were sticking straight up and the rest sagged toward the stem. I cut off a few inches of stem and immediately stuck the flower into fresh water. It revived itself.
I was curious how it would look with flash and without flash using my little old point and shoot. I held the flower up to a light to keep the flash from flashing. Obvious difference.
More beautiful in it's natural lighting. I'm sure there is a parable in there somewhere about the cutting off some stem and reviving the flower. You should write that parable. :D
ReplyDeleteI've been taking two versions of pictures lately: flash and no flash. Sometimes I hate the flashed ones--blares out the color and subtlties. I've missed reading new news. You guys good?
