New Work: Flowers and Hope III

May 14, 2025

Where flowers bloom, so does hope. Lady Bird Johnson

Peonies bloom for such a short time. But in those brief moments from bud to blossom, they gift the earth so much beauty. Even after blooming, with petals dropped and wilting, peonies are breathtaking in every detail. Those details wake me up and touch my soul. I cherish these flowers. Each spring is a fresh opportunity to photograph them and learn something new about the magical world of peonies.
