Black and white macro shot of a water lily glowing in the sun. Its reflection seemingly of a different flower looking wilty. Perhaps like how so many people live their lives. Wearing a veneer of beauty and satisfaction but being completely damaged on the inside.

The image shows a dark butterfly, which appears to be a black swallowtail or spicebush swallowtail, resting among bright yellow daisy-like flowers with finely divided green foliage.

A blue star flower opens up before any of its stem mates. The blue petals translucently letting the sun pass through. Framed against trees and the clear sky.

Macro picture of a pink coneflower in its decline. In Japanese culture there is a term for seeing the beauty in decaying things. Called Wabi Sabi. I have been a fan of this for most of my artistic life.

A pink prairie gentian in full bloom hides behind a bud that has not begun to bloom. Its ruffled petals often have it mistaken for a rose.

#Anemone #FloralFriday #FlowerReport #ECK #WCK #Art #BloomScrolling #Flowers #Macro #FlowersOnBlueSky #Scape

Macro shot of a pale pink anemone flower. Long a symbol of anticipation in Greek mythology. This one is in full bloom filling the frame. Its center and pistils so clear, if you were a bee you would try to pollinate. It is almost monochrome in the paleness of its processing.

"I try to stay strong and walk the line
to forget the pain and grief of that time,
but yet again I hit rewind
and have those flashbacks on my mind."~Jessica Vera

#Lisianthus #PrairieGentian #FlowerReport #ECK #WCK #Art #BloomScrolling #Flowers #Macro #FlowersOnBlueSky #Scape Full #Poem in Alt

A few prairie gentain flowers huddle together enjoying the summer rain that they desperately needed. Pink and swirled up like the rose buds they are often mistaken for.

Restore My Broken Soul Poem by Jessica Vera

Sometimes I think of the unforgettable past that aches within my soul
and wonder how one day I could let it all go.
I try to replace the memories with stories untold
but its hard when I feel the pain of my broken soul.

I try to stay strong and walk the line
to forget the pain and grief of that time,
but yet again I hit rewind
and have those flashbacks on my mind.

I just want to know how I can let it go.
I don't want to remember that no more.
Is there any way I can be bold, move on, and restore my broken soul?
Or do I have to die with all this on my mind and soul?

#Coneflower #FlowerReport #ECK #WCK #Art #BloomScrolling #Flowers #Macro #FlowersOnBlueSky #Scape

Macro shot of a red orange cone flower. Its center pistil stand out ike orange spikes with bloody red tips. One third of the petals are in the sun and rest in the darkness of the shade of other flowers. It looks like it is just waking up and maybe peaking out to see what the day is like before it commits to the whole thing.

Italy is full of details, especially when you visit XVI century towns that are off the tourist trail. Love how the petunias cover this sculpture on a door, you need to stop to notice it.

"Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world's more full of weeping than you can understand."~W.B. Yeats

#Coneflower #ColorADay #PinkMon #FlowerReport #ECK #WCK #Art #BloomScrolling #Flowers #Macro #FlowersOnBlueSky

Macro photo of a pink coneflower. They are quite prevalent in the north eastern United states. But they come in so many variations you could post one a day for a year an only run out of words to describe them. The camera is so close to this one the colors of the petals seem to range in tones. The center is merely a pit of spikes.

The day lily is a symbol of innocence. Its orange red petals bloom like a trumpet cone. Dark background hiding the past.
