White Beauty

Flowers whisper "Beauty!" to the world, even as they fade, wilt, fall.  ~Dr. SunWolf


Winter came quickly this week with a drop of 9 degrees below average for this time of the year.  It has been wet, windy and very chilly for the past three days. 


I was beginning to despair of a photo for today when the sun struggled through the clouds around midday.


These tiny, delicate little blossoms were in the gardens of the Discovery Centre.  They've all suffered a dusting as roadworks threw a blanket of dust over the centre earlier in the week, then 25mm of rain, wind and cold weather to end the week but still they whisper "beauty" to the world.

Be sure to visit Todays Flowers for more flowers from around the world.
