Exquisite Image Photography

Yesterday was horrible. Truly one of the worst days ever. Do you ever have one of those days where you just want to crawl into a corner, pull a blanket over your head and cry… but you’re not sure you even have the energy to do that? There was a lot of crying, yelling, misunderstanding, sarcastic… whatever. And it wasn’t just the other person’s fault. It was my fault too. When we finally got things settled and fixed, I just felt drained.

I didn’t take a single photograph yesterday and (I know this sounds weird) I feel like I missed out on a great moment. Most of my pictures are taken while I’m in a fun mood or a focused mood. I missed the sorrowful me, and who knows what I would have seen. It might have been helpful to document those feelings through art. That said, I did manage to get out my watercolors and put some random swirls of color down on paper. They looked about as good as what my three year old does, but I felt a little better. So today, I’m going to take that little lingering sadness and try to see some new things.

In the meantime, the photograph today is was taken here in Maryland about a month ago. I really liked it because of the withered flowers that surrounded the one bloom. It was almost as if that gorgeous golden bloom was so lovely, the others just melted away in her presence.

Thank you for your indulgence dear reader… you make it all worth it!
