Friday Flowers: Pink Dahlia

pinkdahlThis past Saturday a dear friend and I went to nearby gardens so that she could take portraits of me, which is an unusual position for me.

I am used to being behind the camera, not in front of it.

So as I snap photos of flowers, she snapped photos of me.

So from my garden wanderings last Saturday I bring you today’s Friday Flowers.

There is something about the dew on the petals…

Both flowers have that “light within” sort of thing going for them. I think that is one reason I like them so much.

 As Christians, we are similar to these dahlias and waterlilies,

         ….for we hold THE LIGHT within.
