Yearning To Be Carried Away


I like to think a flower opens itself to outgrow its plantedness. 
That it yearns to be carried away.

  16. Does anyone else remember the book "Ferdinand The Bull"? I loved that book as a child, and this shot makes me think of Ferdinand, contentedly smelling and examining the little things like this, relaxing in his field.
    Thanks,
