Description
"But beauty vanishes; beauty passes;
However rare - rare it be" - Walter de la Mare
This fragile, delicate plum blossom was indeed very beautiful. But plum blossoms disappear in a matter of days leaving behind nothing but a memory of spring. Fortunately, spring comes every year, and countless plum blossoms will once more dance above our heads in the breeze. I wonder, how many of us will actually take the time to see them before they vanish this year?
Converted to black and white and textures applied digitally. Taken in Orcutt, California with a Canon 5D Mark III.
