The daisy has many meanings; innocence, purity and a new beginning are among them. The other generally accepted meanings include: New beginnings; which is why they are often found in bouquets for new mothers or as gifts for children. True love; because each daisy flower is really two flowers blended together in harmony. Keeper of secrets: it symbolizes that the sender can keep a secret; after all, keeping a secret is one way a person can exhibit that they truly love another. New Beginnings; a perfect gift for someone who is making some life changes as well as new mothers. Innocence; especially with white daisies with yellow or pale centers (hence the name of this photograph). Purity; also shown by daisies that are as white as possible. It's because of that daisy's correlation to purity that I choose to limit the color saturation in this photo and keep it looking "daisy fresh". The full color version of this photograph is vibrant and is available by special request... thanks.
"Crystal Wildflowers" Mankind has always been driven to create, whether in music, art, design, innovation or, or, or.... the list can go on forever. Creativity together with imagination keeps us engaged and wanting more. That said, "more" could be a new location, or from an obscure angle, or creatively looking for something out of the ordinary, like this glass ball. I had fun setting this up this shot and quickly discovered something "new"; the magnification of the sun through a glass ball can start a fire in seconds! Yikes!
Flowers have a specific meanings and are symbolic to their meaning. Cultural influences inspire these meaning and are often gifted because of their meanings. A rose, for example, is a well known as a symbol of love and romance. The Daisy, symbolizes purity, innocence, true love, harmony , hope and new beginnings. The daisy is a perfect gift to those in need of a little sunshine in there day; hence I named this photo, "The Gift". The daisy, just like the person you gift it to, is beautiful, tender, kind and a ray of sunshine in your life.
