Strikingly a pair of lotus blossoms rise into the frame. Yellow, white, pink, and gold. An everlasting cycle life and rebirth. "A great fire burns within me, but no one stops to warm themselves at it, and passers-by only see a wisp of smoke" ~Vincent van Gogh

A lavender blue water lily resting on a lily pad at the Huntington library and botanical gardens. The sun directly overhead there is no real shadows cast. The yellow orange center stretches out for sun and bees.

A lavender pink water lily resting on a lily pad at Suihō-en (The garden of water and fragrance), a public Japanese garden in Los Angeles, located in the Lake Balboa district in the central San Fernando Valley. The garden is also famously known as the inspiration, and occasional shooting location for Star Treks Headquarters. (Before The Burn) The sun directly overhead there is no real shadows cast. The yellow orange center stretches out for sun and bees. The picture resembles a painting.

A pale pink white water lily at the Costal Maine Botanical Garden bursts from the water. Surrounded by lily pads it rises inches over the surface to reach for the limited sun that reaches the tree covered pond.

A pale pink water lily sits in the Chinese gardens pond at the Huntington library and botanical gardens. A cloudy day but the flower still opens for the local bees to do their job. Its center glowing yellow and orange like a miniature sun to attract them.

A quartet of photos from West Coast to East Coast for #ThrowbackThursday The latest picture in the group is a year or so old. The other go back further.

Black and white solarized photo of a water lily. Solarization is a process in which the print is exposed. Partially developed and then exposed again but without the negative. It gives off overtones of gray and highlights edges. Quote by Henry Rollins paired with the image. "Life will not break your heart. It'll crush it."

White and pink water lily resting on the lily pads surrounding it. It's petaloid reach from the center glowing in the suns touch. Longing for life. "I am not sorry for my soul That it must go unsatisfied, For it can live a thousand times, Eternity is deep and wide. I am not sorry for my soul, But oh, my body that must go Back to a little drift of dust Without the joy it longed to know." ~Sara Teasdale

A blueish lavender water lily pokes out of the water and seems to rest on a floating leaf. Its yellow center glows in the sun and its yellow petaloid are tipped with lavender points. "Pay attention to my words That are there within you. I am telling about you, And you are entitled, I know. How long you are there, and also I want to know about your livelihood And you are keeping aside yourself And that is not the truth. No right and no wrong, It is all the same here With the hearing and In detachment. It is your sense of purity, You may take it as real and unreal as well."~Gajanan Mishra

A water lily blooms amongst the green lily pads of the pond. Its Orange Yellow center compliment the deep pink of the petals. Another lily is just starting to peek through the surface of the water.

Close up photo of the seed pod of a lotus blossom flower. The pod is green and wrinkled. The seeds themselves look like small green olives. The entire pod will slowly dry and shrink until the seeds are black and can be easily picked out by birds.
