On Feb. 5, 2008, I was invited to see the dance performance of the Dream of Red Chamber, performed by the touring Beijing Friendship Dance Company in Toronto, Canada. The Dream of Red Chamber is a classic and famous Chinese love tragedy novel written in the Qing Dynasty. Two young lovers promised each other in their previous life, however their love had to come to an end because Baoyu Jia’s wealthy family forced him to marry a rich cousin for his family’s interest. His true love Daiyu Lin died of broken heart upon hearing of his marriage. Baoyu eventually left his family and wealth to become a monk. This photo was taken at the scene where Daiyu was burying spring flowers in the garden to express the sentiment that she felt for the dying flowers. Maybe they will meet again in their next life?

I took this while standing in line to go to Alcatraz Island in San Francisco. The wind was fluttering just so, making the petals dance.

THE UNCONDITIONAL LOVERS / 110 X 160 cm canvas. / For details see it in a large view. The Fool comes to a cross-road, filled with energy, confidence and purpose, knowing exactly where he wants to go and what he wants to do. But he comes to a dead stop. A flowering tree marks the path he wants to take, the one he’s been planning on taking. But standing before a fruit tree marking the other path is a woman. He’s met and had relationships with women before, some far more beautiful and alluring. But she is different. Seeing her, he feels as though he’s just been shot in the heart with cupid’s arrow, so shocking, so painful is his “recognition” of her. As he speaks with her, the feeling intensifies; like finding a missing part of himself, a part he’s been searching for his life long. It is clear that she feels the same about him. They finish each others sentences, think the same thoughts. It is as if an Angel above had introduced their souls to each other. Though it was his plan to follow the path of the flowering tree, and though it will cause some trouble for him to bring this woman with him, to go somewhere else entirely, the Fool knows he dare not leave her behind. Like the fruit tree, she will fulfill him. No matter how divergent from his original intent, she is his future. He chooses her, and together they head down a whole new road.

Hmmm… well this was initially part of the reflections project… until I started messing with different views. I got this and just love it. All by itself its so simple but beautiful
This little flower girl was dancing in her own little world and I wanted to capture the movement – the backdrop is not ideal, perhaps next time I should have a shorter depth of field to blur out the background more.
