"Another Tuesday and a Head Full of Regret"
I found this beautiful patch of lilies outside of the local
prison. It was ironic to see the barbed wire fence just beyond them in the distance. Made me terribly grateful to be standing at that spot-at that moment..

They look a bit like long green pancakes don’t they? It’s usually nature that makes me feel so grateful to be free. Wonderful shot and description to go with it.

i have a question, what is that odd purple thing amoung the leaves? is it just me … is it organic? :P “there’s no such thing as a dumb question” i hope that’s true ;)

fascinating shot, I love the way you caught the texture of the brown leaf in the centre.

I am just loving this,... and the rest of your wonderful portfolio gallery. You are a very talented artist & i appreciate your style. I particularly like this one, the colors are brilliant, Yet another fantastic offering from natures designs. This one has inspired me for a textile print idea. If it ever eventuates, i’ll show you! ( i get a lot of ideas, but not that many come to fruition! ) I collect kaleidoscopes & have a lot of fun with repetition, i think that may be why i like this one so much!? xxx
Jacob West

Heloisa Castro

Nacho Garcés

I love that autumnal golden-green . It reminds me of a painting by William Waterhouse .
Have you ever read the prose poem titled ‘The White Water Lilly’ by Stephane Mallarme ?
I hope incidentally that the prisoners get to see the beauty of those plants and be edified by the sight .
Birgitta replied
Thanks for checking it out, Sam! And I’m glad you like it. :)
No, I haven’t read that. I did a google search just now and found
the author, but not the poem. I’m hoping that the prisoners will
even notice. They get out on work release sometimes..and I saw a group
of them cleaning the area, etc..but sometimes our burdens can blind us
from the simple beauties such as a group of lilies..equally imprisoned
by the pond. :-/ (forgive me..I wax poetic at times!)
Much to the dismay of my kids…heheh.
secretagentman7
Your kids are blessed to have an amazing artist for a mother .
Yes, I hope that you find access to the prose poem by Mallarme. I wish texts were easier to access on line. I’m borderline computer illiterate—otherwise I’d help you to hone in on it .
It is sad that such burdens can blind us to beauties .
And, incidentally , I like the new name which you have christened with me ‘Sam’. That was once the name of the family dog: a Shih-Tzu . Also I have a new friend in the apartment complex where I’ve moved named Sam who is a fellow fan of old Country-Western music .

Jeremy Ham

amarica
True beauty!!!
C Hummel
Great image, also loike your commentary.
It is amazing that such beauty can arise from the sludge of a pond. Maybe it is symbolic to the prison, that maybe something beautiful could emerge from behind the prison walls
Joyce Dickens,...
A gorgeous natural abstract Birgitta….......I love the rich color….and the lily pads have almost a 3D appearance….well done!
Patricia Gibson

sunchaser
Wow, Birgitta…just wow! I am speechless!
flokot
wow, great eyecatching image and the story behind it is amazing! My husband works just near a prison and it’s always a little unnerving walking past there, hearing the shouting and watching the masses of police officers smoking outside the front door. It does make me wonder what kind of person would voluntarily enter such a place to work there!
Wendi Donaldson
This is a beautiful shot, Birgitta…. Loved your story too….makes the shot that much more poignant.
TeresiaSimmons
Lovely shot…wonderful colors…it’s good to have moments of gratefulness…some people go a long time without being really thankful for ne thing.
