Awakening

As a piece of unique botanical art, "Awakening" captures a profound moment of natural wonder.

 

There are rare, singular moments when nature sheds its veil and speaks directly to the core of human existence. Looking down at this blooming yellow dahlia as it woke to the morning light, I was shaken on a profound soul level that resonated throughout my entire being. From the exact instant I saw its beautiful, finger-like petals opening from its heart center—perfectly mimicking the shape of two hands parting in a sacred gesture of receiving—the sheer beauty broke me wide open.

 

Tears filled my eyes, blurring the viewfinder as my spirit aligned with the raw, emotional pulse of the earth.  Capturing this fleeting, breathless moment in the absolute here and now reminded me exactly why I pick up my camera.

 

Having the immense privilege of freezing this everlasting, beautiful love for the world to see is the entire heartbeat of my photography.
