Tulip Chaser

No age of life is inglorious. Youth has its merits, but living to a ripe old age is the true statement of value. Aging is the road that we take to discern our character. Fame and fortune can elude us, but character is immortal. We must encounter a sufficient variety of experiences including both failures and accomplishments in order to gain nobility of character.

― Kilroy J. Oldster

 

I've been pretty much housebound as I'm in recovery mode from pneumonia, so my husband surprised me with a lightbox so I could shoot macros inside. I've been having non stop fun with it, and have done a series on tulips, that I will be posting over time. These ones were in their last day of life, but I still see so much beauty in them.
