The Bleeding Heart

I realize that I published a photograph of a Bleeding Heart two days ago, but when I came across this photograph in my collection, I knew I had to publish it in today's post. And I must admit that I really like this flower, even though its name implies loss and hardship. The symmetry of the flower is what makes it so beautiful. Viewed from either the front or in profile, the symmetry remains quite defined. I like symmetry by the way.

Would you believe that I took this photograph ten years ago? The digital negative was stored on one of my hard drives all that time, and I did not look at it until today. This is tantamount to developing a roll of film and never making prints. The negatives are stored in a drawer for years before they are looked at again. 

So I hope you enjoy today's photograph. Please feel free to leave a comment.

Cheers, Paul
