Honorable Mention / 2023 / Nature / Flowers

Something that transcends that

I have been following flowers on trees for several years now. At first it may have been because "they were beautiful after the rain. But now the reason for chasing them is that I feel as if I can have a conversation with something behind them through the flowers on trees taller than me. It is a very sublime message. I often cry as I receive that message, and I want to be an evangelist to convey it through my photographs. It only shows itself when we are “present.”
”There is something that transcends the superficial beauty.
It is sacred and essential./Eckhart Tolle”
