Description

There is much more to beauty than the outer shell we see...beauty runs deeper...details that stand out more than others...the veins of color in this iris, all running from the inner core of the entire flower...much like people...Beauty comes from within and canopies itself around...it radiates through a smile...a twinkle from the eye...a kind word softly spoken. It is the same one as my B&W version of
~ IN THE SHADOWS ~To My Mother...HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
With Much Love......
