1-10 Project: 4 Pink Poppy Petals

This is what I consider a very special image. I remember walking into my front garden and seeing a pink glow down near the ground as the sun was just rising over the hillside. I dropped down into a crouch to stare in rapt amazement at this beautiful little poppy, appreciating the wonderful show it was putting on. The four pink translucent petals overlapped one another and created four darker spots in the shape of an X...how cool is that? I ran inside and returned with my camera so that I could attempt to capture this moment, hoping it would be as pretty as what I saw. Often those special moments cannot be reproduced, that special something just eluding the camera. But today I got lucky and can show you this breathtaking scene.

There are five others doing this project with me, and if you'd like to jump in, we'd love to have you! You can catch up when you can! :)
