A flower lies on the ground. Wilting in the sun. It lifts its stamen up to show it still lives and is fighting. "Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside while still alive." — Tupac Shakur

Black and white lotus blossom. It glows from within by an inner light. The rest of the scene fades in to blacks. Reminds me of loss. Henry Rollins Quote included. “It is sad when someone you know becomes someone you knew.”

On a raft in a body of murky water are several alligators dog-piled on top of each other. There are possibly five visible, but could be more. There is a branch in the upper left that is in front of the raft so covers up a bit of the gator pile.
Today is #Horizontal for #BlueSkyArtShow
Some horizontally prone #alligators in Florida. It was, apparently "cold" that day, so they told us; we thought it was perfect.

A peach rose blows amber in sun of the morning. Wound tightly it begins to open itself to the world and show its heart. "Every heart sings a song, incomplete, until another heart whispers back. Those who wish to sing always find a song. At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet."~Plato

A mostly monochrome photo of an iris flower battered by the rain. It hunkers over its center. Protecting the golden inside. "So many people are shut up tight inside themselves like boxes, yet they would open up, unfolding quite wonderfully, if only you were interested in them." — Sylvia Plath
