A moment in time


Sometimes beauty can surprise us when we least expect it.  I was rearranging furniture in my lounge room, and moved these beautiful flowers outside so as not to knock them over.  Yellow and purple is an all time favourite colour combo, but this simply blew me away.  Imagine my delight when I came outside to bring them back inside, when the clouds cleared and the sun shone down at just the right time so as to display these beauties in all their glory...just the way nature intended.  I was lucky to get just one picture before the clouds rolled in again.  What a treasure.
