Two young participants from our Growing Good initiative in Thailand, which teaches children how to be honest, responsible and fair.
I altered this one a bit using iPhoto, to get a better sense of being able to see through the petals, and to make the colour pop out more. The composition of the flowers is interesting too, I think--I didn't do that on purpose, as this one was taken from underneath the flowers, using the "forward-facing camera" on my phone. It just turned out nicely, though I'm not sure why I like that aspect of it.
This image is part of a "photoblitz" I did for ds106. See here for the instructions and here for the blog post I did on this photoblitz.

"Transparency"
The Daisy follows soft the Sun --
And when his golden walk is done --
Sits shyly at his feet --
He -- waking -- finds the flower there --
Wherefore -- Marauder -- art thou here?
Because, Sir, love is sweet!
We are the Flower -- Thou the Sun!
Forgive us, if as days decline --
We nearer steal to Thee!
Enamored of the parting West --
The peace -- the flight -- the Amethyst --
Night's possibility!
-Emily Dickinson
