I love how the one raindrop on this Daffodil is reflecting a whole field of flowers in the near distance. One perfect raindrop telling a much bigger story. The small is revealing the great.

Thank you, Brandy. I think you are amazing.:)
I never thought I would fall in love with shooting flowers…until I saw these pictures. Simple spectacular! You are a gift in my life.
Kiran,
I am so honored that you would say that! Would love to see your photography sometime.:)
[…] earth. My heart flutters. There! And there again! Each drop is like a tiny mirror, reflecting the upside down Kingdom, where a great King comes to serve, and being the greatest means loving the […]
