Clouds and Flowers





Clouds and flowers - what a pair! They have more so much in common: ephemeral, fleeting, necessary, sweet (well - maybe flowers, not so sure about the clouds), beautiful, cyclical, up and down, delicate, insubstantial, filling our lexicons with metaphors, locked into our emotions, and very difficult to do justice to with a photograph. It seems to Big Frank that in addition to all the previous, there is also the observation that it is rare to see photographs of flowers and clouds. It's almost like pairing the tiny with the gigantic, the ground with the sky, and the palpable with the abstract. Clouds and flowers.
