Waves of Yellow and Blue Flowers

I intentionally selected this clump of blue flowers with yellow flowers in the background, with the idea the the colors would create a powerful color statement. The rain cleared, the sun came out, began to set, and lit the water drops with golden light.

Each water drop was tiny. I aimed at one nearby, hoping to capture the clarity of the yellow flower in the blue water drop against the background of the yellow flower wave.

As Rabindranath Tagore writes:

The same stream of life that runs through the world runs through my veins night and day.
It is the same life that emerges in joy through the dust of the earth into numberless waves of flowers.
