We often, naturally, take all the time allowed to view the front side of a flower; yet we rarely take time to view its backside! Well, during my most recent visit to the Desert Botanical Garden to capture photos, I discovered the backside of this flower is quite as lovely as its front side, wouldn’t you agree? I’ve decided, going forward, I will certainly take the time – to turn around and look!

“Nobody sees a flower – really – it is so small it takes time – we haven’t time – and to see takes time, like to have a friend takes time.”  Georgia O’Keefe

And…following is the backside of this flower looking into the sun – still very lovely!
