In May of this year in troubled times I turned to the colors of flowers. This duo is from a set that I captured in high key and for transparency during a tough time.

I went back and looked at my RAW take and processed these images of Gazania in the last couple of days. Post-processing took a great deal longer than the original capture; with holidays coming on and the end of the year fast approaching my life sometimes seems to be a constant interruption.

To capture a flower, to release the soul of the inner flower, is meditation and a path to calm and light.
