I often just hold my breath as I read through the posts on Persisting Sighs. They are crisp like the snap of clean sheets and lush like smell of rose petals at sunset.
Today Madelyn quoted Neruda and channeled just how I felt earlier today, when I didn't have the word to express what I saw:
Naked you are as simple as one of your hands,
smooth, terrestrial, tiny, round, transparent,
you have moon~lines, apple paths.
Naked you are as thin as bare wheat,
Naked you are blue like a Cuban night,
there are vines and stars in your hair,
Naked you are enormous and yellow
like summer in a gilded church.
~Pablo Neruda

Beautiful photo, Jana. I want to say that to each one you post, but this one is my favorite color, and is completely inspiring.
I also appreciate a good flower photo .The lighting and exposure is just right.Would like to check on your other flower photos in the future.
I also photograph flowers when I see nice looking ones. The flowers are usually pretty, but my photography is still growing in experience. Please have a look at one of my photos....the link is below.
If you want you can use it also in your blog. I don't know what flower it is, but it is from South Africa.
