Captured Sunshine


A Flower or Sunshine? (Click picture for larger view) Posted by Picasa
"One of the most attractive things about the flowers is their beautiful reserve."
~ Henry David Thoreau (American Essayist, Poet and Philosopher, 1817-1862)
This beautiful flower shimmered with shades of yellow, colors of the sun, as if the sun itself inhabited each petal. The feeling so strong one could imagine it lighting up a room in the darkest of nights or bringing warmth to a cold and damp dungeon. The dynamic energy of the sun stored in so delicate a vessel.
