Carrying on last week's study of Taraxacum, this image captures the same Dandelion a day later. Note how the form resonates so unmistakably with existential notions of Being and Essence. Was this flower ever truly complete? Is it now not a 'Flower' or is its true nature somehow made concrete in the inevitability of change?

Phormium tenax
Carrying on the exploration of nature's simple forms up close, this week's image of a flax was taken in morning sun. The black background was a result of lighting conditions, aperture and shutter speed. I've added some vignetting but not sure if I'm completely sold on the post processing, will see if it grows on me.
