Another beautiful shot! I really like this Universe in the Flower series. It certainly opens my eyes up to the symbolism of the flower language.

I like this one even better than the previous one, those petals! And the blackground! Like hoovering in the universe.

I like the accent on the forefront petals and the cetre in a bright blurr! (Chrysanthemums are my birthday flowers and as I live in the land of chrysanthemums it is a joy to see each year what the growers have to offer at their exhibitions organized around temples and in the big parks/gardens.)
