Seeing 2011 (#55)

For your consideration: a macro vision of the elegant complexities and symmetries of nature.

While this image's subject is hardly unique, the particular specimen here surely is as individually distinguished amongst its kind as each of us bipedal observers are likewise utterly differentiated from our kin. Such nuanced evolution, repeated beyond computation and comprehension, is miraculous and a source of personal wonder and amazement.

This tableau's composition reminds me of satellite imagery of hurricanes; this swirling mass is considerably softer, gentler and quieter in its approach and impact on those fortunate enough to pause long enough to encounter it.

White Flower, #0943
