I sometimes wonder if I should stick to a certain ‘style’ but I can’t help myself, I can’t limit myself in this way – there are so many ways to see and interpret beauty (including seeing ‘beauty’ in the so-called ‘ugly’). Thanks again, sweetheart, you made my day :))

    This is luxurious, colleen…
    Soft and moisted…. trembling each petal with a transparency that many times the petals have, specially when the light of the sun is not too hot..
